'''Structure of the Bcl-XL:Beclin 1 complex'''<br />


==Overview==
==Structure of the Bcl-XL:Beclin 1 complex==
Bcl-2 family proteins are key regulators of apoptosis and have recently, been shown to modulate autophagy. The tumor suppressor Beclin 1 has been, proposed to coordinate both apoptosis and autophagy through direct, interaction with anti-apoptotic family members Bcl-2 and/or Bcl-X(L)., However, the molecular basis for this interaction remains enigmatic. Here, we report that Beclin 1 contains a conserved BH3 domain, which is both, necessary and sufficient for its interaction with Bcl-X(L). We also report, the crystal structure of a Beclin BH3 peptide in complex with Bcl-X(L) at, 2.5A resolution. Reminiscent of previously determined Bcl-X(L)-BH3, structures, the amphipathic BH3 helix of Beclin 1 bound to a conserved, hydrophobic groove of Bcl-X(L). These results define Beclin 1 as a novel, BH3-only protein, implying that Beclin 1 may have a direct role in, initiating apoptotic signaling. We propose that this putative apoptotic, function may be linked to the ability of Beclin 1 to suppress tumor, formation in mammals.

== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/B2CL1_HUMAN B2CL1_HUMAN] 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:19917720</ref> <ref>PMID:21840391</ref>  Isoform Bcl-X(S) promotes apoptosis.<ref>PMID:19917720</ref> <ref>PMID:21840391</ref>
