ZIPK, active

Background Information:

ZIP (or DAPK3 : Death-associated protein kinase) is a calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase that phosphorylates serine/threonine residues on proteins. It has been shown to have a potential role in regulating VSMC contraction and induces morphological changes in apoptosis when overexpressed in mammalian cells.
