MADD

MAP kinase-activating death domain protein ;
Differentially expressed in normal and neoplastic cells ;
Insulinoma glucagonoma clone 20 ;
Rab3 GDP/GTP exchange factor ;

caution:The sequence shown here is derived from an Ensembl automatic analysis pipeline and should be considered as preliminary data.,function:Plays a significant role in regulating cell proliferation, survival and death through alternative mRNA splicing. Isoform 5 shows increased cell proliferation and isoform 2 shows decreased. Converts GDP-bound inactive form of RAB3A, RAB3C and RAB3D to the GTP-bound active forms. Component of the TNFRSF1A signaling complex: MADD links TNFRSF1A with MAP kinase activation. Plays an important regulatory role in physiological cell death (TNF-alpha-induced, caspase-mediated apoptosis); isoform 1 is susceptible to inducing apoptosis, isoform 5 is resistant and isoform 3 and isoform 4 have no effect.,miscellaneous:Overexpression of MADD activates the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). Expression of the MADD death domain stimulates both the ERK and c-JUN N-terminal kinase MAP kinases and induces the phosphorylation of cytosolic phospholipase A2.,similarity:Belongs to the MADD family.,similarity:Contains 1 dDENN domain.,similarity:Contains 1 death domain.,similarity:Contains 1 DENN domain.,similarity:Contains 1 uDENN domain.,subunit:Interacts with the death domain of TNFRSF1A through its own death domain.,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in fetal brain and kidney; adult testis, ovary, brain and heart. Isoform 5 is constitutively expressed in all tissues. Isoform 7 is expressed in fetal liver and in several cancer cell lines.,
