Suppression of signalling through transcription factor NF-AT by interactions between calcineurin and Bcl-2
@article{Shibasaki1997SuppressionOS, title={Suppression of signalling through transcription factor NF-AT by interactions between calcineurin and Bcl-2}, author={F. Shibasaki and E. Kondo and T. Akagi and F. McKeon}, journal={Nature}, year={1997}, volume={386}, pages={728-731} }
It is not known how the protein Bcl-2 inhibits cell death induced by calcium signalling and growth-factor withdrawal1–3. Here we report that Bcl-2 forms a tight complex with calcineurin, resulting in the targeting of calcineurin to Bcl-2 sites on cytoplasmic membranes, and show that this interaction is dependent on the BH4 domain of Bcl-2. Calcineurin bound to Bcl-2 is an active phosphatase but is unable to promote the nuclear translocation of NF-AT, a transcription-factor required for… CONTINUE READING
