Description
Product Characteristics: DAPK3(Death-associated protein kinase 3) belongs to the Ser/Thr protein kinase family which acts as a positive regulator of apoptosis. DAPK3 is a homodimer or forms heterodimers with ATF4. Both interactions require an intact leucine zipper domain and oligomerization is required for full enzymatic activity. It also binds to DAXX and PAWR, possibly in a ternary complex which plays a role in caspase activation.
Target Information: Death-associated protein kinase 3 (DAPK3) induces morphological changes in apoptosis when overexpressed in mammalian cells. These results suggest that DAPK3 may play a role in the induction of apoptosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
