FADD-LIKE ANTI-APOPTOTIC MOLECULES, METHODS OF USING THE SAME, AND COMPOSITIONS FOR AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

Two FADD-like anti-apoptotic proteins that regulate Fas/TNFR1- or UV-induced apoptosis are disclosed. Nucleotide sequences encoding the proteins are disclosed as are methods of using the nucleic acid molecules and making the proteins. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods of using the same are disclosed. Reagents, kits and methods of identifying compounds that inhibit anit-apoptotic activity of the proteins and methods of identifying compounds that inhibit binding activity of the proteins are disclosed.
