E2F1 interacts with BCL‐xL and regulates its subcellular localization dynamics to trigger cell death

Laurence Dubrez

Abstract

E2F1 is the main pro-apoptotic effector of the pRB-regulated tumor suppressor pathway by promoting the transcription of various pro-apoptotic proteins. We report here that E2F1 partly localizes to mitochondria, where it favors mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization. E2F1 interacts with BCL-xL independently from its BH3 binding interface and induces a stabilization of BCL-xL at mitochondrial membranes. This prevents efficient control of BCL-xL over its binding partners, in particular over BAK resulting in the induction of cell death. We thus identify a new, non-BH3-binding regulator of BCL-xL localization dynamics that influences its anti-apoptotic activity.
