Bcl2l11 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable protein kinase binding activity. Predicted to contribute to microtubule binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to amyloid-beta; cellular response to estradiol stimulus; and positive regulation of autophagy in response to ER overload. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytosol; intracellular membrane-bounded organelle; and microtubule. Predicted to be part of BIM-BCL-2 complex and BIM-BCL-xl complex. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Orthologous to human BCL2L11 (BCL2 like 11). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]
