Anti-FADD (FAS-associated death domain protein, FAS-associating death domain-containing protein, Gro

FADD?Fas-Associated protein with Death Domain?is a universal adaptor protein in apoptosis that mediates signaling of all known death domain-containing members of the TNF receptor superfamily. The FADD gene contains 2 exons and spans approximately 3.6 kb. By analysis of somatic cell hybrid panels and by fluorescence in situ hybridization, the FADD gene is mapped to 11q13.3. The protein encoded by this gene is an adaptor molecule that interacts with various cell surface receptors and mediates cell apoptotic signals. Through its C-terminal death domain, this protein can be recruited by TNFRSF6/Fas-receptor, tumor necrosis factor receptor, TNFRSF25, and TNFSF10/TRAIL-receptor, and, thus, it participates in the death signaling initiated by these receptors. UniProt Number: Q13158, Gene ID: FADD, Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Handling: Store at -20?C for one year. After reconstitution, store at 4?C for one month.
