rpr | Cell death protein rpr; Reaper (rpr) encodes Reaper, Hid, Grim (RHG) protein. It contributes to the caspase dependent apoptosis by inhibiting the anti-apoptotic protein encoded by Diap1. (65 aa) | ||||
morgue | Modifier of rpr and grim, ubiquitously expressed (morgue) encodes an F box/ubiquitin conjugase domain protein. It regulates cell death by controlling the levels of the apoptosis inhibitor encoded by Diap1. (491 aa) | ||||
Skp2 | S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (Skp2) encodes the substrate recognizing component of the SCF-Skp2 ubiquitin ligase. It functions with the product of Cks85A to target the product of dap for destruction. It is required for larval growth and to maintain diploidy in imaginal tissues. (559 aa) | ||||
Diap1 | Death-associated inhibitor of apoptosis 1; Anti-apoptotic protein which functions as a caspase regulator, using its E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity to smother caspase activity. Binds, ubiquitinates and inactivates initiator caspase Dronc, and effector caspases Drice and Dcp-1. Acts as a Nedd8- E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase for Drice. Suppresses apoptosis by targeting the apoptosome for ubiquitination and inactivation. Plays an important role in cell motility. Overexpression suppresses rpr and hid- dependent cell death in the eye. Interaction of Diap1 with Dronc is required to suppre [...] (438 aa) |
