Gene:
modulator of apoptosis 1
Gene ID:
199855
Symbol:
MOAP1
Species:
1000
Description:
The protein encoded by this gene was identified by its interaction with apoptosis regulator BAX protein. This protein contains a Bcl-2 homology 3 (BH3)-like motif, which is required for the association with BAX. When overexpressed, this gene has been shown to mediate caspase-dependent apoptosis.
