Analysis of the N-terminal region of human MLKL, as well as two distinct MLKL isoforms, reveals new insights into necroptotic cell death
We show that mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) isoform 2, which lacks the pseudokinase domain and activation loop phosphorylation sites, is a more potent activator of cell death compared with MLKL isoform 1. Both MLKL isoforms are expressed in human monocyte-derived macrophages.
