B cell CLL/lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) and its relatives comprise the BCL-2 family of proteins, which were originally characterized with respect to their roles in controlling outer mitochondrial membrane integrity and apoptosis. Current observations expand BCL-2 family function to include numerous cellular pathways. Here we will discuss the mechanisms and functions of the BCL-2 family in the context of these pathways, highlighting the complex integration and regulation of the BCL-2 family in cell fate decisions.
B 细胞慢性淋巴细胞白血病/淋巴瘤-2(BCL-2)及其相关蛋白构成了 BCL-2 家族蛋白,它们最初的特征是在控制外线粒体膜完整性和细胞凋亡方面的作用。目前的观察结果将 BCL-2 家族的功能扩展到包括许多细胞途径。在这里,我们将讨论 BCL-2 家族在这些途径中的作用机制和功能,重点介绍 BCL-2 家族在细胞命运决定中的复杂整合和调节。
