Facts about Diacylglycerol kinase eta.
Activates the Ras/B-Raf/C-Raf/MEK/ERK signaling pathway induced by EGF. Regulates the recruitment of RAF1 and BRAF from cytoplasm to membranes and their heterodimerization.

Isoform 2 is ubiquitously expressed. Isoform 1 is expressed only in testis, kidney and colon.
Cytoplasm. Cell membrane. Translocated from the cytoplasm to endosomes in response to stress stimuli (PubMed:12810723). Isoform 2 is rapidly relocated back to the cytoplasm upon removal of stress stimuli, whereas isoform 1 exhibits sustained endosomal association (PubMed:12810723). Translocates from the cytoplasm to the cell membrane in the presence of active GTP-bound form of HRAS (PubMed:19710016).
