Growth factor withdrawal and apoptosis: the middle game.

Abstract:

:In this issue of Molecular Cell, detail molecular events that trigger apoptosis following growth factor withdrawal, linking irreversible mitochondrial permeabilization to activation of GSK-3 and subsequent phosphorylation, ubiquitinylation, and degradation of the antiapoptotic BCL-2 family member MCL-1.
