Preferred Label : Proto-Oncogene proteins c-bcl-2;
MeSH definition : Membrane proteins encoded by the BCL-2 GENES and serving as potent inhibitors of cell
death by APOPTOSIS. The proteins are found on mitochondrial, microsomal, and NUCLEAR
MEMBRANE sites within many cell types. Overexpression of bcl-2 proteins, due to a
translocation of the gene, is associated with follicular lymphoma.;
