Constitutive phosphorylation mutation in Fas-associated death domain (FADD) results in early cell cycle defects.

Abstract excerpt

Fas-associated death domain (FADD) is an adaptor molecule for the death receptor subfamily of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, but it is also required for cell proliferation. Cell cycle-specific regulation of FADD phosphorylation plays an important role in FADD proliferative function since mice with a mutant form of FADD mimicking constitutive phosphorylation at serine 191 (FADD-D) exhibit...
