Abstract
The present invention relates to a novel molecule involved in the process of apoptosis. In particular, isolated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding the human RAIDD protein and splice variants thereof—referred to as RAIDD-SV1 and RAIDD-SV2. RAIDD polypeptides are also provided as are vectors, host cells and recombinant methods for producing the same. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of RAIDD activity.
