Background Bcl-2-like protein 13 (BCL2L13), also known as Bcl-rambo, is an atypical member of the Bcl-2 family of proteins that regulates apoptosis at the mitochondria (1). While it contains conserved Bcl-2 homology (BH) domains -1, -2, -3, and -4, it has a unique C-terminal region and does not interact with other Bcl-2 family members (1). BCL2L13 may regulate apoptosis in a cellular context manner (reviewed in 2). It was originally identified as a pro-apoptotic protein with activity dependent on its C-terminal region (1). Interaction with the adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) suppresses the ADP/ATP-dependent translocation activity of ANT (3). Other studies have found that BCL2L13 can inhibit apoptosis in glioblastoma and tumor growth (4). These studies found that BCL2L13 binds to pro-apoptotic ceramide synthases 2 (CerS2) and 6 (CerS6) and blocks homo- and heteromeric CerS2/6 complex formation and activity. Studies have also found that BCL2L13 can regulate mitochondrial fragmentation and can bind to LC3 to facilitate the clearance of damaged mitochondria through mitophagy (5,6).
