Dap - death-associated protein

Predicted to enable death domain binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including activation of cysteine-type endopeptidase activity involved in apoptotic process; cellular response to amino acid starvation; and regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to act upstream of or within apoptotic process. Is expressed in early conceptus; pancreas; and skeleton. Orthologous to human DAP (death associated protein).
