epitope corresponding to amino acids 241-540 of RICK of human origin
Modification Notes
Members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family play a key role in the induction of NFkB activation and cell death. These receptors recruit and assemble signaling complexes that contain a number of death-domain containing proteins, such as RIP. RICK, also designated RIP2 and CARDIAK, is a RIP-like protein kinase involved in regulating both TNFR and CD95-mediated apoptosis. RICK contains an N-terminal serine-threonine kinase catalytic domain and a C-terminal caspase-recruiting domain. The C-terminal domain is sufficient for the apoptotic functions of the protein, while the whole protein is required for the activation of NFkB. RICK binds specifically to a number of proteins in the TNFR-associated factor (TRA≠F) family, and these TRAF interactions are involved in recruiting RICK to receptor signaling complexes. Overexpression of RICK leads to the activation of caspase-8 and potentiates apoptosis induced by Fas ligand, FADD, CLARP and caspase-8.
