Proto-oncogene protein c-bcl-2 (BCL-2)

Target
BCL-2
Molecular classification
Anti-apoptotic protein, Proto-oncogene, BCL-2 family protein
01

Overview

Proto-oncogene protein c-bcl-2 is an essential antiapoptotic regulator whose dysregulation contributes directly to oncogenesis through inhibition of programmed cell death pathways. It remains a major focus both biologically—for understanding life/death decisions—and clinically—as a therapeutic target across multiple diseases including cancer.
