    text
  • pro-apoptotic protein located in the small subunit of the ribosome (Miller 2008)
  • detected in the cytosol and mitochondria fraction, but only a little in the nucleus fraction in the cells before anti-CD3 antibody stimulation (Tosa 2010)
  • basic FUNCTION
  • involved in mediating interferon-gamma induced cell death
  • potential regulatory function of mitochondrial DAP3 involved in cellular senescence (Murata 2006)
  • GTP-binding constituent of the small subunit of the mitochondrial ribosome with a pro-apoptotic function (Jacques 2009)
  • mitochondrial ribosomal small subunit protein, which is a novel phosphorylated target (Miller 2008)
  • may participate in mitochondrial maintenance and play a role in the balance between mitochondrial homoeostasis and tumourigenesis (Jacques 2009)
  • responsible for regulating apoptosis induced by various stimuli (Harada 2010)
  • critical for anoikis induction (detachment of adherent epithelial cells from the extracellular matrix inducing apoptosis) (Li 2009)
  • critical for TCR-mediated induction of apoptosis at the downstream of NNR4A1 (Tosa 2010)
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, cell death/apoptosis

  • may be interacting with MRPS27
  • interacting with the glycocorticoid receptor and enhancing its ligand-induced activiry
  • DAP3-binding protein termed death ligand signal enhancer (Harada 2010)
  • interferon-beta promoter stimulator 1 (MAVS) binds DAP3 and induces anoikis by caspase activation (Li 2009)
  • functionally associated with NR4A1 on TCR-mediated apoptosis (Tosa 2010)
  • cell & other
    REGULATION
    Other phosphorylated in an Akt-dependent manner, correlating with the suppression of DAP3-facilitated apoptosis in anoikis (Tosa 2010)
