Background: BAK

Bak a pro-apoptotic analog to Bax, is a member of the Bcl-2 family of proteins. During mitochondria-regulated programmed cell death, Bak promotes apoptosis by binding Bcl-2 and inhibiting its anti-apoptotic function (1). Upon apoptotic stimulation, Bak translocates from the cytosol to the mitochondrial membrane (2). Pro-apoptotic cascade activates BID, which oligomerizes Bak into pores that result in the release of cytochrome c (2, 3). In healthy cells, Bak associate with Bcl-xL and Mcl-1 but not with Bcl-2, Bcl-w or A1 and only when freed of both Bak will induce apoptosis.
