DRAK2 also known as Death-associated protein kinase-related apoptosis-inducing protein kinase 2 is part of the serine/threonine kinase family. This protein has a molecular weight of about 48 kDa. DRAK2 expresses mostly in lymphoid tissues including the spleen and thymus. It plays a role in negative regulation during T-cell receptor signaling and is important during lymphocyte activation.
The role of DRAK2 extends beyond kinase activity. It is involved in immune response modulation and can affect apoptosis in T lymphocytes. DRAK2 is not part of a larger protein complex but rather acts independently to exert its function. It influences cellular mechanisms by altering signaling pathways that impact cell survival and death.
You find DRAK2 involved in both the T-cell receptor signaling and apoptosis pathways. It connects to the T-cell receptor pathway due to its regulation of T-cell activation and proliferation. DRAK2 activity can interact with proteins such as calmodulin and Protein Kinase C in these pathways indicating its role in signaling transduction critical for T-cell function.
DRAK2 links to autoimmune diseases and cancer. Abnormal DRAK2 expression might contribute to autoimmune conditions like multiple sclerosis by affecting T-cell autoreactivity. Its involvement in cancer emerges through regulation of apoptosis where malfunction may lead to resistance against cell death aiding cancer cell survival. In this context DRAK2 connection with proteins such as caspases plays a role in mediating apoptotic pathways in cells.
