Gene names: BAD , BBC6, BCL2L8
Protein names and data: BAD_HUMAN , Bcl2 antagonist of cell death; BAD , Bcl-2-binding component 6; Bcl-2-like protein 8; Bcl2-L-8; Bcl-XL/Bcl-2-associated death promoter Lenght: 168 a.a.
Mass: 18392 Da
fasta formatted sequence

Function: Promotes cell death. Successfully competes for the binding to Bcl-X(L), Bcl-2 and Bcl-W, thereby affecting the level of heterodimerization of these proteins with BAX. Can reverse the death repressor activity of Bcl-X(L), but not that of Bcl-2 (By similarity). Appears to act as a link between growth factor receptor signaling and the apoptotic pathways.
Cellular location: Mitochondrion outer membrane. Cytoplasm. Note=Upon phosphorylation, locates to the cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity: Expressed in a wide variety of tissues.
