General description
Monoclonal Anti-Death Associated Protein (DAP) Kinase (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the DAPK-55 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice. Death-associated protein 1 (DAP1) gene is mapped to human chromosome 9q34.1. It belongs to the DAP family.
The gene is widely expressed in many tissues of embryonic and adult origin and gives rise to a single 6.3 Kb mRNA transcript. The protein consists of 1423 amino acids (160 kDa) and belongs to a family of calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. It contains 8 ankyrin repeats and 2 potential P-loop motifs apart from the kinase domain and the calmodulin regulatory domain.
Immunogen
recombinant human DAP kinase expressed in bacteria.
Application
Monoclonal Anti-Death Associated Protein Kinase antibody produced in mouse has been used in immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
DAP-kinase is a novel, structurally unique, human serine/threonine kinase identified as a positive mediator of interferon-γ-induced programmed cell death. It has an intrinsic kinase activity towards itself that is regulated by calmodulin and calcium.
Death-associated protein 1 (DAP1) participates in the regulation of cell growth and death including that of cancer cells. DAP-kinase has an intrinsic kinase activity towards itself that is regulated by calmodulin and calcium.
