DAP (death associated protein) kinase and ZIP kinase are members of a novel protein kinase family, the members of which have the capacity to mediate apoptosis through their catalytic activities. DAP kinase contains a “death domain” and has been shown to mediate gamma interferon-induced apoptosis. The introduction of DAP kinase into highly metastatic carcinoma clones lacking DAP kinase expression was shown to result in the suppression of metastasis, thus linking suppression of apoptosis to metastasis. ZIP kinase contains a leucine zipper domain, which is necessary for homodimerization and for interaction with other leucine zipper proteins.
