Annotation score:3 out of 5

<p>The annotation score provides a heuristic measure of the annotation content of a UniProtKB entry or proteome.

Effector of the programmed cell death (PCD) activators rpr, grim and W. May play an apoptotic role in the germline as well as soma. Role in immune response, required to resist Gram-negative bacterial infections by regulating DptA. Fadd interacts with Dredd, Fadd promotes cleavage of Dredd and is necessary and sufficient for enhancing Dredd-induced apoptosis.
