TRAF2/3 deficient B cells resist DNA damage-induced apoptosis via NF-κB2/XIAP/cIAP2 axis and IAP antagonist sensitizes mutant lymphomas to chemotherapeutic drugs
Deletion of TRAF2 or TRAF3 in B cells prolongs their survival. However, it remains unknown whether deletion of such factors affects B cells’ ability...

Inter-α-inhibitor Proteins: A Review of Structure and Function
Inter-α-inhibitor-family proteins (IAIP) are a multifaceted group of complex molecules with important roles in mammalian biology. In the past... -
Molecular basis for nuclear accumulation and targeting of the inhibitor of apoptosis BIRC2
The inhibitor of apoptosis protein BIRC2 regulates fundamental cell death and survival signaling pathways. Here we show that BIRC2 accumulates in the...
