About Bcl2l2

Chromosome 14: 55,129,957-55,135,626 forward strand.GRCm39:CM001007.3

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 224 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 10 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in cerebellum adult (RPKM 14.5), cortex adult (RPKM 13.8) and 28 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable protein dimerization activity and protein domain specific binding activity. Acts upstream of or within Sertoli cell proliferation and extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in absence of ligand. Located in cytosol and mitochondrial membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; gallbladder; genitourinary system; and intestine. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in transient cerebral ischemia. Orthologous to human BCL2L2 (BCL2 like 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
