UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: FKBP8_HUMAN (Q14318)
Gene Name: FKBP8
Synonyms: FKBP38
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Constitutively inactive PPiase, which becomes active when bound to calmodulin and calcium. Seems to act as a chaperone for BCL2, targets it to the mitochondria and modulates its phosphorylation state. The BCL2/FKBP8/calmodulin/calcium complex probably interferes with the binding of BCL2 to its targets. The active form of FKBP8 may therefore play a role in the regulation of apoptosis.
