Descriptions

DAPK1, Death-associated protein kinase 1, is a Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-regulated Ser/Thr kinase that functions as a positive mediator of programmed cell death. It associates with actin microfilament and has a unique multidomain structure. The structure/function analysis of the protein revealed two modules that regulate the pro-apoptotic effect of DAPK1. One comprises the CaM-regulatory segment, which possesses an autoinhibitory effect on the catalytic activity, relieved by binding to Ca2+-activated CaM. The deletion of this segment from DAPK1 generated a constitutively active kinase, which displayed CaM-independent substrate phosphorylation, and enhanced the apoptotic activity in vivo. Second is the autophosphorylation site (Ser308) which resides within the CaM regulatory segment. The autophosphorylation of Ser308 strengthens a locking device, generated by the interaction of the CaM-autoinhibitory domain with the catalytic cleft. Conversely, absence of the phosphate group weakens the lock and therefore partially relieves the autoinhibition, resulting in Ca2+/CaM-independent activity.

3 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
cytoskeleton A cellular structure that forms the internal framework of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. The cytoskeleton includes intermediate filaments, microfilaments, microtubules, the microtrabecular lattice, and other structures characterized by a polymeric filamentous nature and long-range order within the cell. The various elements of the cytoskeleton not only serve in the maintenance of cellular shape but also have roles in other cellular functions, including cellular movement, cell division, endocytosis, and movement of organelles.
cytosol The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes.
nucleus A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent.

5 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
ATP binding Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
GTP binding Binding to GTP, guanosine triphosphate.
metal ion binding Binding to a metal ion.
protein serine kinase activity Catalysis of the reactions
protein serine/threonine kinase activity Catalysis of the reactions

5 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
innate immune response Innate immune responses are defense responses mediated by germline encoded components that directly recognize components of potential pathogens.
intracellular signal transduction The process in which a signal is passed on to downstream components within the cell, which become activated themselves to further propagate the signal and finally trigger a change in the function or state of the cell.
phosphorylation The process of introducing a phosphate group into a molecule, usually with the formation of a phosphoric ester, a phosphoric anhydride or a phosphoric amide.
positive regulation of apoptotic process Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cell death by apoptotic process.
regulation of response to stimulus Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a response to a stimulus. Response to stimulus is a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus.
