Abstract
The regulation of apoptosis depends upon the Bcl-2 protein family. The process of cell death and survival is highly complicated and regulated by various types of extrinsic as well as intrinsic network of biological system. Several enzymes and regulators play crucial role in cell death and survival cycle not only in healthy but also in pathological state particularly in cancer. In cancerous cells, various proto-oncogenes and anti-apoptotic proteins are activated and responsible for the cell survival and longevity. The mechanism of activation and inactivation of various proteins in cell survival is regulated by the process of phosphorylation (kinases) and dephosphorylation (phosphatases). The current review will summarize the dynamics of Bcl-2 phosphorylation and its role in apoptosis and cell survival.
