... are engaged by their ligands (the extrinsic pathway) or when BCL-2-family pro-apoptotic proteins cause the permeabilization of the mitochondrial outer membrane (the intrinsic pathway). Both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of apoptosis lead to the activation of a family of proteases, the caspases, which...

... ORFV125 homologous to B-cell lymphoma 2 or Bcl-2 family proteins, which has been shown to inhibit host cell encoded pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins. However, the structural basis of apoptosis inhibition by ORFV125 remains to be clarified. We show that ORFV125 is able to bind to a range of peptides spanning...

... by the DNA-damaging agent, etoposide, is associated with a fall in the levels of the anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein. This fall in Bcl-2 protein concentration can be attenuated by M 3 -muscarinic receptor stimulation. We conclude, therefore, that the M 3 -muscarinic receptor signals to the anti-apoptotic...
