JNK is involved in regulating another mitochondrial protein cytochrome c during cell apoptosis. Specifically, Smac is the second mitochondrial-derived caspase activator, which promotes cell apoptosis by activating caspase. Without NF-κB…
TPC2 inhibitor, SG-094 can inhibit hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tumor growth by inhibiting two-pore channel 2 (TPC2). TPCs are eukaryotic intracellular voltage-gated and ligand-gated cation-selective ion channels. TPCs are an ancient…
SET7 is a protein lysine methyltransferase (PKMT), which methylates a plethora of proteins and regulates diverse biological processes. Meanwhile, SET7 plays a significant role in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle control,…
Bcl-2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) and Bcl-xL (B-cell lymphoma-extra large) are members of the Bcl-2 family of proteins. BCL-2 is localized to the outer membrane of mitochondria, where it plays an important…
