The Bmi1 oncogene has been shown to induce telomerase activity and immortalize human mammary epithelial cells.
Bmi1 extends the replicative life span of human fibroblasts by suppressing the p16-dependent senescence pathway.
Bmi1 is also important in maintaining stem cells' ability to self renew.
It has also been termed an oncogene with aberrant expression in various carcinomas.
It has been shown to be a negative regulator of p19Arf, Ink4a (p14Arf) and tp53 known tumor repressors.
Ablation of Bmi1 is required for short term survival of cancer cells.
