== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/B2CL1_MOUSE B2CL1_MOUSE] Potent inhibitor of cell death. Inhibits activation of caspases (By similarity). Appears to regulate cell death by blocking the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) by binding to it and preventing the release of the caspase activator, CYC1, from the mitochondrial membrane. Also acts as a regulator of G2 checkpoint and progression to cytokinesis during mitosis.<ref>PMID:9390687</ref>   Isoform Bcl-X(S) promotes apoptosis (By similarity).<ref>PMID:9390687</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
This study reports the crystal structures of Bcl-xl wild type and three Bcl-xl mutants (Y101A, F105A, and R139A) with amino acid substitutions in the hydrophobic groove of the Bcl-xl BH3 domain. An additional 12 ordered residues were observed in a highly flexible loop between the alpha1 and alpha2 helices, and were recognized as an important deamidation site for the regulation of apoptosis. The autophagy-effector protein, Beclin 1, contains a novel BH3 domain (residues 101-125), which binds to the surface cleft of Bcl-xl, as confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and analytical gel-filtration results. Gossypol, a potent inhibitor of Bcl-xl, had a K(d) value of 0.9 microM. In addition, the structural and biochemical analysis of five Bcl-xl substitution mutants will provide structural insights into the design and development of anti-cancer drugs.

Structural insights into mouse anti-apoptotic Bcl-xl reveal affinity for Beclin 1 and gossypol.,Priyadarshi A, Roy A, Kim KS, Kim EE, Hwang KY Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2010 Apr 9;394(3):515-21. Epub 2010 Mar 4. PMID:20206602<ref>PMID:20206602</ref>
