High impact information on Ripk4

  • Protein kinase C-associated kinase (PKK)/receptor interacting protein 4 (RIP4) is a protein kinase C (PKC) beta-associated kinase that links PKC to NF-kappaB activation [1].
  • Unlike IKKalpha, RIP4-deficient skin fails to fully differentiate when grafted onto a normal host [2].
  • RIP4 functions cell autonomously within the keratinocyte lineage [2].
  • RIP4 is a novel RIP (receptor-interacting protein) family kinase with ankyrin repeats cloned from a keratinocyte cDNA library [2].
  • The phenotype of RIP4(-/-) mice in part resembles that of mice lacking IKKalpha, a component of a complex that regulates NF-kappaB [2].
 

Biological context of Ripk4

  • Moreover, RIP4 is cleaved after Asp340 and Asp378 during Fas-induced apoptosis [3].
 

Regulatory relationships of Ripk4

  • RIP4 binds to several members of the TRAF protein family, and DN versions of TRAF1, TRAF3 and TRAF6 inhibit RIP4-induced NF-kappa B activation [3].
 

Other interactions of Ripk4

  • Overexpression of RIP4 leads to activation of NF-kappa B and JNK [3].
  • RIP4 contains an N-terminal RIP-like kinase domain and a C-terminal region characterized by the presence of 11 ankyrin repeats [3].
  • RIP4 deficiency in mice results in perinatal lethality associated with abnormal epidermal differentiation [2].
