Facts about Death-associated protein kinase 2.
The former involves caspase activation, chromatin and mitochondrial condensation while the latter entails caspase-independent cell death in conjunction with accumulation of adult autophagic vesicles, plasma membrane blebs, and nuclear condensation without DNA degradation. Mediator of anoikis and a suppressor of beta- catenin-dependent anchorage-independent growth of malignant epithelial cells.

Expressed in peritubular interstitial cells of the renal cortex (PubMed:24906443). Isoform 1 is found in the adult brain while isoform 2 is expressed in brains of embryos and young mice (at protein level) (PubMed:21408167).
