  Domain Name: Death
Death Domain: a protein-protein interaction domain. Death Domains (DDs) are protein-protein interaction domains found in a variety of domain architectures. Their common feature is that they form homodimers by self-association or heterodimers by associating with other members of the DD superfamily including CARD (Caspase activation and recruitment domain), DED (Death Effector Domain), and PYRIN. Structural analysis of DD-DD complexes show that the domains interact with each other in many different ways. DD-containing proteins serve as adaptors in signaling pathways and they can recruit other proteins into signaling complexes. In mammals, they are prominent components of the programmed cell death (apoptosis) pathway and are found in a number of other signaling pathways. In invertebrates, they are involved in transcriptional regulation of zygotic patterning genes in insect embryogenesis, and are components of the ToII/NF-kappaB pathway, a conserved innate immune pathway in animal cells.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.

Tips:
 If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position.

 The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs.

 Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below.
