Biochem/physiol Actions

Bcl-10 is an intracellular signaling protein identified from the t(1;14)(p22;q32) breakpoint in MALT lymphomas. The human Bcl10 gene encodes a protein of 233 amino acids containing an N-terminal caspase recruitment domain (CARD) that mediates self-oligomerization and the C-terminal region of Bcl-10. Bcl 10 is expressed ubiquitously with high expression levels in lymphoid tissues and in the developing central nerve system. Mutations have been found in cases of follicular lymphoma and diffuse large B cell lymphoma. Bcl-10 is a positive regulator of antigen-receptor induced NF-kB activation and Bcl-10-initiated activation of NF-kB can be inhibited by cotransfection of dominant-negative mutants of TRAF2, NIK, IKKa or IkBa.
