Facts about Diablo homolog, mitochondrial.
Inhibits the action of BIRC6/bruce by inhibiting its binding to caspases. Isoform 3 attenuates the stability and apoptosis- inhibiting action of XIAP/BIRC4 by boosting XIAP/BIRC4 ubiquitination and degradation during the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.

Ubiquitously expressed with highest expression in testis. Expression is also high in heart, liver, kidney, spleen, prostate and ovary. Low in brain, lung, thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes. Isoform 3 is ubiquitously expressed.
Mitochondrion. Released into the cytosol when cells undergo apoptosis.
