The BCL-2 family of proteins orchestrates a complex signaling network that governs the balance between cellular survival and death. A comprehensive understanding of the mechanistic interactions between these proteins continues to evolve in normal and malignant cells. The functional variation

The tumor suppressor p53 plays a critical part in determining cell fate both as a regulator of the transcription of several proapoptotic genes and through its binding interactions with Bcl-2 family proteins at mitochondria. We now demonstrate that p53 protein
The changes that drive differentiation facilitate the emergence of abnormal cells that need to be removed before they contribute to further development or the germline. Consequently, in mice in the lead-up to gastrulation, ∼35% of embryonic cells are eliminated. This
