  2. Death domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_domain

    The death domain (DD) is a protein interaction module composed of a bundle of six alpha-helices. DD is a subclass of protein motif known as the death fold and is related in sequence and structure to the death effector domain and the caspase recruitment domain , which work in similar pathways and show similar interaction properties.

  3. Death fold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_fold

    Structure of a death domain protein. The death fold is a tertiary structure motif commonly found in proteins involved in apoptosis or inflammation-related processes.This motif is commonly found in domains that participate in protein–protein interactions leading to the formation of large functional complexes.

  5. Death-inducing signaling complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death-inducing_signaling...

    The death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) is a multi-protein complex formed by members of the death receptor family of apoptosis-inducing cellular receptors. [1] A typical example is FasR, which forms the DISC upon trimerization as a result of its ligand binding. The DISC is composed of the death receptor, FADD, and caspase 8. It transduces a ...

  6. Taxonomic rank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxonomic_rank

    There are seven main taxonomic ranks: kingdom, phylum or division, class, order, family, genus, and species. In addition, domain (proposed by Carl Woese) is now widely used as a fundamental rank, although it is not mentioned in any of the nomenclature codes, and is a synonym for dominion (Latin: dominium), introduced by Moore in 1974. [12] [13]

  7. FADD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FADD

    FAS-associated death domain protein, also called MORT1, is encoded by the FADD gene on the 11q13.3 region of chromosome 11 in humans. [4]FADD is an adaptor protein that bridges members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, such as the Fas-receptor, to procaspases 8 and 10 to form the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) during apoptosis.
