DLK
Part of a non-canonical MAPK signaling pathway. Activated by APOE, enhances the AP-1-mediated transcription of APP, via a MAP kinase signal transduction pathway composed of MAP2K7 and MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1. May be an activator of the JNK/SAPK pathway. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase kinase subfamily. Highly expressed in brain and kidney. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
