Bik reduces hyperplastic cells by increasing Bak and activating DAPk1 to juxtapose ER and mitochondria
Bcl-2 interacting killer (Bik) decreases airway epithelial hyperplasia via apoptosis mediated by calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but the mechanism is unclear. Here the authors show that Bik promotes Bak enrichment at the ER to tether mitochondria for efficient calcium transfer.
