100-264 8.04e-84

DNA Fragmentation factor 45kDa, C terminal domain; The C terminal domain of DNA Fragmentation factor 45kDa (DFF-C) consists of four alpha-helices, which are folded in a helix-packing arrangement, with alpha-2 and alpha-3 packing against a long C-terminal helix (alpha-4). The main function of this domain is the inhibition of DFF40 by binding to its C-terminal catalytic domain through ionic interactions, thereby inhibiting the fragmentation of DNA in the apoptotic process. In addition to blocking the DNase activity of DFF40, the C-terminal region of DFF45 is also important for the DFF40-specific folding chaperone activity, as demonstrated by the ability of DFF45 to refold DFF40.

18-96 5.77e-42

CIDE_N domain, found at the N-terminus of the CIDE (cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector) proteins, as well as CAD nuclease (caspase-activated DNase/DNA fragmentation factor, DFF40) and its inhibitor, ICAD(DFF45). These proteins are associated with the chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation events of apoptosis; the CIDE_N domain is thought to regulate the activity of ICAD/DFF45, and the CAD/DFF40 and CIDE nucleases during apoptosis. The CIDE-N domain is also found in the FSP27/CIDE-C protein.

18-96 5.77e-42

CIDE_N domain of ICAD. The CIDE_N (cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector, N-terminal) domain is found at the N-terminus of the CAD nuclease (caspase-activated DNase/DNA fragmentation factor, DFF40) and its inhibitor, ICAD (DFF45). These proteins are associated with the chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation events of apoptosis; the CIDE_N domain is thought to regulate the activity of the CAD/DFF40 and ICAD/DFF45 during apoptosis. In normal cells, DFF exists in the nucleus as a heterodimer composed of CAD/DFF40 as a latent nuclease and its chaperone and inhibitor subunit ICAD/DFF45. Apoptotic activation of caspase-3 results in the cleavage of DFF45/ICAD and release of active DFF40/CAD nuclease.

CIDE_N domain of FSP27 proteins. The CIDE-N (cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector, N-terminal) domain is found in the FSP27/CIDE-C protein, which has been identified as a n adipocyte lipid droplet protein that negatively regulates lipolysis and promotes triglyceride accumulation. The CIDE protein family includes 3 members: CIDE-A, CIDE-B, and FSP27(CIDE-C). Based on sequence similarity with DFF40 and DFF45, CIDE proteins were initially characterized as mitochondrial activators of apoptosis. The CIDE-N domain of FSP27 is sufficient to increase apoptosis in vitro when overexpressed.

CIDE_N domain of CIDE-A proteins. The CIDE_N (cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector, N-terminal) domain is found at the N-terminus of the CIDE (cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector) proteins.

The CIDE protein family includes 3 members: CIDE-A, CIDE-B, and FSP27(CIDE-C). Based on sequence similarity with DFF40 and DFF45, the CIDE proteins were initially characterized as mitochondrial activators of apoptosis. However, strong metabolic phenotypes of mice lacking CIDE-A and CIDE-B indicated that this family may play critical roles in energy balance.

CIDE_N domain of CIDE-B proteins. The CIDE_N (cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector, N-terminal) domain is found at the N-terminus of the CIDE (cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector) proteins. These proteins are associated with the chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation events of apoptosis; the CIDE_N domain is thought to regulate the activity of the CAD/DFF40, ICAD/DFF45 and CIDE nucleases during apoptosis. The CIDE protein family includes 3 members: CIDE-A, CIDE-B, and FSP27(CIDE-C). Based on sequence similarity with DFF40 and DFF45, CIDE proteins were initially characterized as mitochondrial activators of apoptosis. However, strong metabolic phenotypes of mice lacking CIDE-A and CIDE-B indicated that this family may play critical roles in energy balance.
