Bcl2l12 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable p53 binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of apoptotic process and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of cellular senescence and negative regulation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage by p53 class mediator. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Orthologous to human BCL2L12 (BCL2 like 12). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 rat Bcl2l12 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
