About Bok

Summary

Enables BH domain binding activity and protein heterodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including central nervous system development; male gonad development; and positive regulation of apoptotic process. Located in mitochondrion. Biomarker of hydrocephalus. Orthologous to human BOK (BCL2 family Apoptosis regulator BOK). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
