Summary
This gene encodes a member of the BCL-2 family of proteins. This family member belongs to the BH3-only pro-apoptotic subclass. The protein cooperates with direct activator proteins to induce mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization and apoptosis. It can bind to anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members to induce mitochondrial dysfunction and caspase activation. Because of its pro-apoptotic role, this gene is a potential drug target for cancer therapy and for tissue injury. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (1) includes an alternate exon in the 5' coding region, resulting in a frameshift for the remainder of the CDS, compared to variant 2. The encoded isoform (1, also known as PUMA-gamma) has the same N-terminus but is otherwise distinct and longer, compared to isoform 2.

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (3) lacks two exons spanning the 5' and central coding regions, resulting in a frameshift in the 3' coding region, compared to variant 2. The encoded isoform (3, also known as PUMA-delta) has the same N-terminus but is otherwise distinct and shorter, compared to isoform 2.

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (4) has alternate exon structure at its 5' end and it thus differs in the 5' UTR and 5' coding region, compared to variant 2. The encoded isoform (4, also known as PUMA-alpha) has a distinct N-terminus and is longer than isoform 2. Isoform 4 also includes the C-terminal BH3 domain and can localize to the mitochondria.
