Bbc3 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable ATPase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including determination of adult lifespan; intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to endoplasmic reticulum stress; and positive regulation of apoptotic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage by p53 class mediator; positive regulation of apoptotic process; and positive regulation of establishment of protein localization to mitochondrion. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial envelope. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Predicted to colocalize with lysosome. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; immune system; liver; retina; and skeletal muscle. Orthologous to human BBC3 (BCL2 binding component 3).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Bbc3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
