The apoptosis-associated protein BNIPL interacts with two cell proliferation-related proteins, MIF and GFER.

Bcl-2/adenovirus E1B 19 kDa interacting protein 2-like, BNIP-2-like (BNIPL) is a recently cloned and characterized apoptosis- associated protein that shares 72% homology with BNIP-2. It is highly expressed in human placenta and lung. A yeast two-hybrid system was used to obtain two BNIPL-interacting proteins, MIF (macrophage migration inhibitory factor) and GFER (growth factor erv1 (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)-like). The interactions were confirmed by glutathione S-transferase pull-down assay in vitro and co-immunoprecipitation assay in vivo. Colony formation assay and cell proliferation test suggest that overexpression of BNIPL could inhibit the growth of BEL-7402 cells. These findings suggest that BNIPL may physically bind to cell proliferation-related proteins, MIF and GFER.[1]
