    Summary
    Predicted to enable BH domain binding activity. Acts upstream of or within apoptotic mitochondrial changes; male gonad development; and spermatogenesis. Located in mitochondrial envelope. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; heart; liver; and lung. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in ataxia telangiectasia; breast cancer; colon cancer; and prostate cancer. Orthologous to human BIK (BCL2 interacting killer).

    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.
