The NMR structure of the BID-BAK complex
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23604079
Function
[BAK_HUMAN] In the presence of an appropriate stimulus, accelerates programmed cell death by binding to, and antagonizing the anti-apoptotic action of BCL2 or its adenovirus homolog E1B 19k protein. Low micromolar levels of zinc ions inhibit the promotion of apoptosis.[1] [2]
