Mcl-1 (Myeloid cell leukemia-1) is a member of the bcl-2 family.
The carboxy terminal of Mcl-1 and bcl-2 share significant sequence homology.
Expression of Mcl-1 is increased upon exposure of ML-1 cells to various types of DNA damaging agents (e.g.
ionizing radiation, ultraviolet radiation, and alkylating drugs) along with increases in GADD45 and Bax and a decrease in bcl-2.
Like bcl-2, Mcl-1 has the capacity to promote cell viability under conditions that otherwise cause apoptosis.
Myeloid cell leukimia-1 (Mcl-1) is a member of the Bcl-2 family of proteins that can act to promote cell survival.
While the mechanism by which Mcl-1 inhibits apoptosis is not known, it is thought that it may heterodimerize and neutralize pro-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family such as Bim or Bak.
Mcl-1 was originally identified in differentiating myeloid cells, but has since been shown to be expressed in multiple cell types.
Mcl-1 is essential for embryogenesis and for the development and maintenance of B and T lymphocytes in animals.
Mcl-1 exists as at least two distinct isoforms designated Mcl-1L and Mcl-1S.
In marked contrast to the larger isoform of Mcl-1, overexpression of Mcl-1S promotes cell death.
