Description
BCL2L2 promotes cell survival. BCL2L2 mediates survival of postmitotic Sertoli cells by suppressing death-promoting activity of BAX. BCL2L2 is part of the BCL-2 protein family which form hetero- or homodimers and play an important role as anti and proapoptotic regulators. BCL2L2 causes reduced cell apoptosis under cytotoxic conditions. BCL2L2 is involved in the survival of NGF- and BDNF-dependent neurons. BCL2L2 plays an important role in adult spermatogenesis.
Recombinant Human BCL2L2 produced in E Coli cells is a non-glycosylated, homodimeric protein containing 171 amino acid chain and having a molecular mass of 18.6kDa. The Human BCL2L2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques
