The N terminal domain of 'Tumour necrosis factor receptor type 1 associated death domain protein' (TRADD) folds into an alpha-beta sandwich with a four-stranded beta sheet and six alpha helices, each forming one layer of the structure. The domain allows docking of TRADD onto 'tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated factor' (TRAF): the binding is at the beta-sandwich domain, away from the coiled-coil domain. Binding ensures the recruitment of cIAPs to the signaling complex, which may be important for direct caspase-8 inhibition and the immediate suppression of apoptosis at the apical point of the cascade [1]. This domain is structurally related to the small-molecule-binding ACT domain (RRM-like fold) [2].
