FADD Rabbit PolymAb®

Predicted to enable several functions, including caspase binding activity; death effector domain binding activity; and tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily binding activity. Involved in several processes, including hematopoietic or lymphoid organ development; negative regulation of activation-induced cell death of T cells; and positive regulation of CD8-positive, alpha-beta cytotoxic T cell extravasation. Acts upstream of or within extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in absence of ligand; motor neuron apoptotic process; and regulation of programmed cell death. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell body; cytosol; and membrane raft. Predicted to be part of CD95 death-inducing signaling complex and ripoptosome. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in leukemia. Orthologous to human FADD (Fas associated via death domain).
