| Description: | University of New Mexico Assay Overview: Assay Support: NIH 1X01 MH079850-01 HTS to identify small molecule regulators of Bcl-2 family protein interactions PI: Larry Sklar, Ph.D. Assay Implementatiion: Peter Simons Ph.D, Susan Young MS, Anna Waller Ph.D, Mark Carter MS Profiling Assay Background and Significance: One arm of apoptosis is regulated by the balance of anti-apoptotic and pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members. In humans, six genes have been identified that encode anti-apoptotic proteins characterized by the presence of conserved motifs designated as three Bcl-2 homology (BH) regions, BH1, BH2, and BH3 [Reed, et al. 2004]. These domains form a hydrophobic cleft in tertiary structure. Pro-apoptotic family members contain BH3 regions that form an amphipathic helix, and these helices bind in the clefts of the anti-apoptotic proteins. Overexpression of pro-apoptotic BH3 peptides has been shown to increase apoptosis of leukemia cells using in vitro and animal model studies [H |
