Also known as DJ79P11.1
Summary
BEX2 (brain expressed X-linked 2, HGNC:30933) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xq22.2, encoding Protein BEX2 (Q9BXY8). Regulator of mitochondrial apoptosis and G1 cell cycle in breast cancer.
This gene belongs to the brain expressed X-linked gene family. The encoded protein interacts with the transcription factor LIM domain only 2 in a DNA-binding complex that recognizes the E-box element and promotes transcription. This gene has been found to be a tumor suppressor that is silenced in human glioma. In breast cancer cells, this gene product modulates apoptosis in response to estrogen and tamoxifen, and enhances the anti-proliferative effect of tamoxifen. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Regulator of mitochondrial apoptosis and G1 cell cycle in breast cancer. Protects the breast cancer cells against mitochondrial apoptosis and this effect is mediated through the modulation of BCL2 protein family, which involves the positive regulation of anti-apoptotic member BCL2 and the negative regulation of pro-apoptotic members BAD, BAK1 and PUMA. Required for the normal cell cycle progression during G1 in breast cancer cells through the regulation of CCND1 and CDKN1A. Regulates the level of PP2A regulatory subunit B and PP2A phosphatase activity. In absence of reductive stress, acts as a pseudosubstrate for the CRL2(FEM1B) complex: associates with FEM1B via zinc, thereby preventing association between FEM1B and its substrates.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with LMO2, possibly leading to regulate the transcriptional activity of a DNA-binding complex containing LMO2. Interacts with OMP.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Nucleus.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in central nervous system, with high level in pituitary, cerebellum and temporal lobe. Widely expressed in breast cancer cell lines.
Domain organisation. The histidine cluster (His cluster) and Cys-125 mediate zinc-binding.
Similarity. Belongs to the BEX family.
