DRAK2 Antibody: DRAK2, DRAK2, DAP kinase-related apoptosis-inducing protein kinase 2
Product description
DRAK2 Antibody: Apoptosis is mediated by death domain containing adapter molecules and a caspase family of proteases. Certain serine/threonine protein kinases, such as ASK-1 and RIP, are mediators of apoptosis. Two novel serine/threonine kinases that induce apoptosis were recently identified and designated DRAK1 and DRAK2 (for DAP kinase-related apoptosis-inducing protein kinases). DRAKs contain an N-terminal kinase domain and a C-terminal regulation domain. Overexpression of DRAK2 induces apoptosis. DRAKs have high sequence homology to DAP and ZIP kinases, and they represent a novel family of serine/threonine kinases, which mediates apoptosis through their catalytic activities. DRAK2 is located in nucleus and the messenger RNA was ubiquitously expressed in human tissues.1) Sanjo H, Kawai T, Akira S.

Immunogen
DRAK2 antibody was raised against a 15 amino acid peptide near the carboxy terminus of human DRAK2. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of DRAK2.
