This gene encodes a member of the receptor-interacting protein (RIP) family of serine/threonine protein kinases. The encoded protein contains a C-terminal caspase activation and recruitment domain (CARD), and is a component of signaling complexes in both the innate and adaptive immune pathways. It is a potent activator of NF-kappaB and inducer of apoptosis in response to various stimuli.

Description
Specificity: RIPK2 antibody detects endogenous levels of RIPK2 roteinNot tested with other proteinsRelevance: Apoptosis is mediated by death domain (DD) and/or caspase recruitment domain (CARD) containing molecules and a caspase family of proteases. DD containing serine/threonine kinase RIP regulates Fas induced apoptosis. A novel CARD containing serine/threonine kinase was recently identified and designated RICK/RIP2/CARDIAK for RIP like interacting CLARP kinase, receptor interacting protein 2, and CARD containing ICE associated kinase, respectively. RICK contains an N terminal kinase catalytic domain and a C terminal CARD domain. Overexpression of RICK induced apoptosis and activation of NF kB and JNK. RICK interacts with members of the TRAF family, CLARP and caspase 1. Thus, RICK represents a novel kinase that regulates TNF and Fas induced apoptosis and that is involved in the generation of proinflammatory cytokine IL1b. The messenger RNA of RICK is expressed in multiple human tissues.
