This peptide belongs to the functional domain of BAK, the member of the Bcl-2 family. Bak promotes apoptosis and binds anti-apoptotic family members including Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL. This domain in Bakt is necessary and sufficient for cytotoxic activity and binding to Bcl-xL. It is capable of modulating apoptosis in cells.
