The BAX gene is characterized by 5 protein coding transcripts (alpha/psi, beta, delta, epsilon, sigma). Baxbeta encodes the longest isoform (891 bp) of the gene. BAX-alpha/Bax-psi variant is 888 bp in length and codes for a protein isoform that possesses a shorter and different C terminus, as compared with the isoform BAX-beta. The third variant (BAX-delta), which is 741 bp in length, lacks exo...
