Death fold
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The death fold is a tertiary structure motif commonly found in proteins involved in apoptosis or inflammation-related processes. This motif is commonly found in domains that participate in protein-protein interactions leading to the formation of large functional complexes. Examples of death fold domains include the death domain (DD), death effector domain (DED), CAspase Recruitment Domain (CARD), and pyrin domain (PYD).
