The Crystal Structure of the C-terminal region of Death Associated Protein 5(DAP5)The Crystal Structure of the C-terminal region of Death Associated Protein 5(DAP5)
Structural highlights
3d3m is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
IF4G2_HUMAN Appears to play a role in the switch from cap-dependent to IRES-mediated translation during mitosis, apoptosis and viral infection. Cleaved by some caspases and viral proteases.[1][2][3][4]
