Reversible phosphorylation modulates a cells' susceptibility to apoptosis. The phosphorylation status of BAD, a member of the Bcl-2 protein family, is an important checkpoint governing life-or-death decisions: Phosphorylation of serine residues 112, 136 and 155 on BAD prevents apoptosis. Here we report that BAD is a substrate for PP2C. Ser(155) is involved in heterodimerization with Bcl-X-L. We could demonstrate that PP1, PP2A and PP2C act on this site in vitro. However, only PP2C gives priority to P-Ser(155) compared to P-Ser(112) and P-Ser(136) on BAD. The results indicate that PP2C is an additional factor triggering the pro-apoptotic function of BAD.
