Characterization of the Full-Length BAG3 Protein and Stress Induced Formation of BAG3-Z [PDF]
Bcl2-associated athanogene-3 (BAG3) is a pro-autophagy co-chaperone that we havepreviously shown localizes to the cardiac sarcomere and is critical for proteostasis and maintenance of normal sarcomeric function.

BAG3 directly interacts with mutated alphaB-crystallin to suppress its aggregation and toxicity. [PDF]
A homozygous disruption or genetic mutation of the bag3 gene causes progressive myofibrillar myopathy in mouse and human skeletal and cardiac muscle disorder while mutations in the small heat shock protein αB-crystallin gene (CRYAB) are reported to be ...

Notwithstanding previous studies have proved the anti-apoptotic effect of Bcl-2 associated athanogene3 (BAG3) in myocardium, the structural domains PXXP and BAG responsible for its protection are not reformed. Since BAG3 in cardiomyocytes is a new target

Genetic compensation prevents myopathy and heart failure in an in vivo model of Bag3 deficiency.
Mutations in the molecular co-chaperone Bcl2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3) are found to cause dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), resulting in systolic dysfunction and heart failure, as well as myofibrillar myopathy (MFM), which is characterized by protein ...

Background Exaggerated fibroblast proliferation is a well‐known feature in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) which may be – in part – due to insufficient autophagy, a lysosome dependent cellular surveillance pathway. Bcl2‐associated athanogene 3 (BAG3)

BAG3 (Bcl-2 associated athanogene 3) [PDF]
Bcl2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3) protein is a member of BAG family of co-chaperones that interacts with the ATPase domain of the heat shock protein (Hsp) 70 through BAG domain.

BAG3 role in cardiomyocytes physiopathology [PDF]
2010 - 2011The anti-apoptotic protein BAG3 is expressed at high levels in skeletal and cardiac muscle in vivo. Our group recently focused its interest on BAG3 role in myocardiocyte proliferation, survival and response to stressful stimuli.
