Scientific Background :DRAK1 (STK17A) is a member of the DAP kinase-related apoptosis-inducing protein kinase family. DRAK1 encodes an autophosphorylated nuclear protein with a protein kinase domain which has apoptosis-inducing activity. DRAK1 is capable of autophosphorylation and of phosphorylating myosin light chain as an exogenous substrate. The noncatalytic C terminus of DRAK1 is crucial for full kinase activity (1). DRAK1 is highly expressed in placenta, but also in heart, lung, skeletal muscle, kidney, and pancreas. DRAK1 act as a novel direct target of p53 and a modulator of cisplatin toxicity and reactive oxygen species in testicular cancer cells (2).
