Savoy cabbage washing when storing since moisture hastens decay. The cabbage provides fiber, vitamins A, C, K and B6, folate, potassium, manganese, thiamin, calcium, iron and magnesium. Savoy can be difficult to grow as it suffers from caterpillars, pigeons and club root disease. It does best in full sun, and is winter-hardy, able to tolerate the cold, frost and snow. Savoy cabbage Savoy cabbage ("Brassica oleracea" var. "sabauda" L. or "Brassica oleracea" Savoy Cabbage Group), is a variety of the plant species "Brassica oleracea". Savoy cabbage is a winter vegetable and one of several cabbage varieties. It is thought to originate from
BOK (gene) of Bok to its interacting partners seems to be mediated by its BH3 domain. The splice variant Bok-S lacks this domain and is unable to form heterodimers with other proteins of the Bcl-2 family. In yeast two-hybrid experiments, Bok was found to interact with the anti-apoptotic proteins Mcl-1, BHRF-1, and Bfl-1. However, interactions with other anti-apoptotic proteins such as Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, and Bcl-w were not detectable (1). Later studies aimed at confirming an interaction between Bok and pro-apoptotic Bak or Bax but were not successful. Accordingly, coexpression of anti-apoptotic proteins such as Mcl-1 suppresses apoptosis induced by Bok overexpression. Consistent
