Preferred Label : genes, bcl-2;
MeSH definition : The B-cell leukemia/lymphoma-2 genes, responsible for blocking apoptosis in normal
cells, and associated with follicular lymphoma when overexpressed. Overexpression
results from the t(14;18) translocation. The human c-bcl-2 gene is located at 18q24
on the long arm of chromosome 18.;
