Lesson plan
PIDD1
Leucine-rich repeats and death domain containing, also known as LRDD or p53-induced protein with a death domain (PIDD), is a protein which in humans is encoded by the LRDD gene. The leucine-rich repeat (LRR), first identified by Patthy, is a domain involved in protein-protein interactions and is present in numerous proteins that serve a variety of cellular roles. Leucine-rich repeats (LRR) proteins in eukaryotic cells are found in the nucleus, cytoplasm, extracellular matrix and plasma membrane.
