Questions and Answers

What is the regulatory role of the Bcl2 family of intracellular proteins in the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis?

The Bcl2 family of intracellular proteins regulates the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis by either activating or inhibiting apoptosis.

Why is a careful balance between the activating and inhibiting members of the Bcl2 family important in apoptosis?

A careful balance between the activating and inhibiting members of the Bcl2 family is important in apoptosis to ensure that the process is properly regulated and controlled.

What are the functions of the activating and inhibiting members of the Bcl2 family in the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis?

The activating members of the Bcl2 family promote apoptosis, while the inhibiting members, such as Bcl2, prevent or inhibit apoptosis.
