BAG-2 Protein, Human (His)

BAG2 Protein, Human (His) promotes tumorigenesis through enhancing mutant p53 protein levels and function. BAG2 is a target of the c-Myc gene and is involved in cellular senescence via the p21CIP1 pathway^[1][2].

BAG2, a protein of Bcl-2 associated athanogene (BAG) family, promotes mutp53 accumulation and GOF in tumors. Mechanistically, BAG2 binds to mutp53 and translocates to the nucleus to inhibit the MDM2-mutp53 interaction, and MDM2-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of mutp53. Thus, BAG2 promotes mutp53 accumulation and GOF in tumor growth, metastasis and chemoresistance. BAG2 is frequently overexpressed in tumors^[1].
