Background InformationDeath Associated Protein 5 (DAP-5) is a protein with high amino acid sequence homology to Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4G (eIF4G). Compared with eIF4G, DAP5 lacks the N-terminal region necessary for cap-dependent translation and has a unique C-terminal part functioning as a regulator for interferon-gamma induced cell death. DAP5 is cleaved at Asp790 during apoptosis . The C-terminal truncated form of DAP5 functions as a cap-independent translation initiation factor responsible for the mediation of its own translation during apoptosis.

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryTranslation initiation is mediated by specific recognition of the cap structure by eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F (eIF4F), which is a cap binding protein complex that consists of three subunits: eIF4A, eIF4E and eIF4G. The protein encoded by this gene shares similarity with the C-terminal region of eIF4G that contains the binding sites for eIF4A and eIF3; eIF4G, in addition, contains a binding site for eIF4E at the N-terminus. Unlike eIF4G, which supports cap-dependent and independent translation, this gene product functions as a general repressor of translation by forming translationally inactive complexes. In vitro and in vivo studies indicate that translation of this mRNA initiates exclusively at a non-AUG (GUG) codon. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms of this gene have been described. [provided by RefSeq]

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: 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.

SUBUNIT STRUCTURE: Interacts with the serine/threonine protein kinases MKNK1 and MKNK2. Binds EIF4A and EIF3. Interacts with MIF4GD.

TISSUE SPECIFICTY: Ubiquitously expressed in all adult tissues examined, with high levels in skeletal muscle and heart. Also expressed in fetal brain, lung, liver and kidney.

PTM: Phosphorylation; hyperphosphorylated during mitosis.

MISCELLANEOUS: This gene has been shown to be extensively edited in the liver of APOBEC1 transgenic animal model. Its aberrant editing could contribute to the potent oncogenesis induced by overexpression of APOBEC1. The aberrant edited sequence, called NAT1, is likely to be a fundamental translational repressor.

SEQUENCE SIMILARITIES: Belongs to the eIF4G family.

Contains 1 MI domain.

Contains 1 MIF4G domain.

Contains 1 W2 domain.
