Chemical modulation of cytosolic BAX homodimer potentiates BAX activation and apoptosis
Abstract The BCL-2 family protein BAX is a major regulator of physiological and pathological cell death. BAX predominantly resides in the cytosol in a quiescent state and upon stress, it undergoes conformational activation and mitochondrial translocation leading to mitochondrial outer membrane perme...
