[HTML][HTML] The third model of Bax/Bak activation: a Bcl-2 family feud finally resolved?
X Luo, KL O'Neill, K Huang - F1000Research, 2020 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Bax and Bak, two functionally similar, pro-apoptotic proteins of the Bcl-2 family, are known
as the gateway to apoptosis because of their requisite roles as effectors of mitochondrial …
