DAPK1 death associated protein kinase 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 1612)
Symbol: DAPK1
Full name: death associated protein kinase 1
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: DAPK; ROCO3
Summary: Death-associated protein kinase 1 is a positive mediator of gamma-interferon induced programmed cell death. DAPK1 encodes a structurally unique 160-kD calmodulin dependent serine-threonine kinase that carries 8 ankyrin repeats and 2 putative P-loop consensus sites. It is a tumor suppressor candidate. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]
