RIPK2

Also known as CARD3, CARDIAK, CCK, GIG30, RICK, RIP2, receptor interacting serine/threonine kinase 2

Receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the RIPK2 gene.

Gene data

RIPK2

Name: receptor interacting serine/threonine kinase 2
Type: protein-coding
Aliases: CARD3, CARDIAK, CCK, GIG30, RICK, RIP2

This gene encodes a member of the receptor-interacting protein (RIP) family of serine/threonine protein kinases. The encoded protein contains a C-terminal caspase activation and recruitment domain (CARD), and is a component of signaling complexes in both the innate and adaptive immune pathways. It is a potent activator of NF-kappaB and inducer of apoptosis in response to various stimuli. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
