The pro-apoptotic multidomain Bcl-2 proteins Bax and Bak (also known as BAK1) are considered the gatekeepers of the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis by triggering the mitochondrial release of cytochrome c The role of the third Bax- and Bak-homologous multidomain protein
Bim is the key mediator of glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis and of its potentiation by rapamycin in human myeloma cells.

Bok is a member of the Bcl-2 protein family that governs the intrinsic apoptosis pathway, although the role that Bok plays in this pathway is unclear. We have shown previously in cultured cell lines that Bok interacts strongly with inositol
Bcl-xES, a BH4- and BH2-containing antiapoptotic protein, delays Bax oligomer formation and binds Apaf-1, blocking procaspase-9 activation.
