Gene information for DAPK2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID23604
Official gene symbolDAPK2
Full namedeath-associated protein kinase 2
Aliases,DRP-1,DRP1,MGC119312,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein that belongs to the serine/threonine protein kinase family. This protein contains a N-terminal protein kinase domain followed by a conserved calmodulin-binding domain with significant similarity to that of death-associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1), a positive regulator of programmed cell death. Overexpression of this gene was shown to induce cell apoptosis. It uses multiple polyadenylation sites. [provided by RefSeq]
