During interactions with respective ligands, members of the death receptor superfamily recruit adaptor proteins such as Fas-associated protein with a death domain (FADD) [7, 8] or tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor 1-associated death domain protein (TRADD) [9] , resulting in the aggregation and activation of the initiators caspase-8 and caspase-10 to form the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) [10] . These type I transmembrane proteins share common features, such as extracellular amino-terminal cysteine-rich domains (CRDs) [19, 20] , which contribute to ligand specificity [21] , and pre-association of the receptor at the plasma membrane [22] [23] [24] and a conserved 80-amino acid sequence located in their cytoplasmic tail called death domain (DD), which is necessary for DISC formation and initiation of the apoptotic signal [25, 26] . ./cache/cord-017640-i8h48ny6.txt ./txt/cord-017640-i8h48ny6.txt
