GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
BIRC3 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
API2, c-IAP2, cIAP2, hiap-1, MALT2, MIHC, RNF49
Description
Baculoviral IAP repeat containing 3 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the IAP family of proteins that inhibit apoptosis by binding to tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factors TRAF1 and TRAF2, probably by interfering with activation of ICE-like proteases. The encoded protein inhibits apoptosis induced by serum deprivation but does not affect apoptosis resulting from exposure to menadione, a potent inducer of free radicals. It contains 3 baculovirus IAP repeats and a ring finger domain. Transcript variants encoding the same isoform have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
