Death-associated protein kinase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DAPK1 gene.[1]
Death-associated protein kinase 1 is a positive mediator of gamma-interferon induced programmed cell death. DAPK1 encodes a structurally unique 160-kD calmodulin dependent serine-threonine kinase that carries 8 ankyrin repeats and 2 putative P-loop consensus sites. It is a tumor suppressor candidate.[2]
In melanocytic cells DAPK1 gene expression may be regulated by MITF.[3]"

Glutathione S-transferase P is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GSTP1 gene.[1][2]
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a family of enzymes that play an important role in detoxification by catalyzing the conjugation of many hydrophobic and electrophilic compounds with reduced glutathione. Based on their biochemical, immunologic, and structural properties, the soluble GSTs are categorized into 4 main classes: alpha, mu, pi, and theta. The glutathione S-transferase pi gene (GSTP1) is a polymorphic gene encoding active, functionally different GSTP1 variant proteins that are thought to function in xenobiotic metabolism and play a role in susceptibility to cancer, and other diseases.[3]
GSTP1 has been shown to interact with Fanconi anemia, complementation group C[4][5] and MAPK8.[6]"

METHYLATION HERE IS TO PERPETUATE THE ACTION OF CAUSING FACTORS.  IT IS BAD FOR PATIENTS TO CONTINUE SMOKING ON TREATMENT.  THIS IS AN EARLY EVENT IN TUMOR NEOPLASIA TRANSFORMATION.

Cyclic AMP mediated GSTP1 gene activation in tumor cells involves the interaction of activated CREB-1 with the GSTP1 CRE: a novel mechanism of cellular GSTP1 gene regulation.

PUTING THE EFFECT DEEP INTO THE MITOCHNDRIA.  WHERE THE MTOR INHIBITORS WORK?

 3.RAR BETA:This gene encodes retinoic acid receptor beta, a member of the thyroid-steroid hormone receptor superfamily of nuclear

transcriptional regulators. This receptor localizes to the cytoplasm and to subnuclear compartments. It binds retinoic
acid, the biologically active form of vitamin A which mediates cellular signalling in embryonic morphogenesis, cell
growth and differentiation. It is thought that this protein limits growth of many cell types by regulating gene
expression. The gene was first identified in a hepatocellular carcinoma where it flanks a hepatitis B virus
integration site. The gene expresses at least two transcript variants; one additional transcript has been described,
but its full length nature has not been determined.
