About Bcl2l2

Primary_assembly 15: 28,356,807-28,361,624 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026988.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 61 orthologues, 13 paralogues and is associated with 12 phenotypes. Biased expression in Brain (RPKM 171.4), Kidney (RPKM 125.3) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables BH domain binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to estradiol stimulus; cellular response to organonitrogen compound; and negative regulation of release of cytochrome c from mitochondria. Located in mitochondrial membrane. Biomarker of Alzheimer's disease; epilepsy; pterygium; and transient cerebral ischemia. 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]
