Synonyms | FLAME3 |
Function | May play a critical role in death receptor-induced apoptosis and may target CASP8 and CASP10 to the nucleus. May regulate degradation of intermediate filaments during apoptosis. May play a role in the general transcription machinery in the nucleus and might be an important regulator of the activity of GTF3C3. |
Cellular Location | Nucleus, nucleolus. Note=Nuclear, accumulated in subnuclear structures resembling nucleoli |
Tissue Location | Expressed in most tissues. High levels were found in liver, kidney, heart, ovary, spleen, testes, skeletal muscle and peripheral blood leukocytes. Expression was absent or low in colon and small intestine. Expression is relatively high in the tumor cell lines chronic myologenous leukemia K-562 and the colorectal adenocarcinoma SW480. Expression is moderate in the cervical carcinoma HeLa, the Burkitt's lymphoma Raji, the lung carcinoma A-549, and the melanoma G- 361. In contrast, two leukemia cell lines, HL-60 (promyelocytic leukemia) and MOLT-4 (lymphoblastic leukemia), show relatively low levels. |

Background
DEDD2 Antibody: Apoptotic signals are often triggered by cell surface death receptors through protein-protein interactions mediated by conserved domains such as the death effector domain. A novel death effector domain (DED)-containing protein, DEDD2, has been recently identified and its over-expression in transfected cells induces moderate apoptosis and results in substantial sensitization to apoptosis induced by Fas, TRAIL, and FADD. More recently, work has shown that DEDD2 can bind caspase-8 and -10 in addition to FLIP but not FADD. Like the related protein DEDD, DEDD2 translocates from the cytosol to the nucleus upon induction of apoptosis, and it has been suggested that DEDD2 may target caspase-8 to the nucleus and that DEDD2 thus plays a critical role in death receptor-induced apoptosis. At least two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for DEDD2.
