ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to the three dimensional solution structure of the N-terminal domain of TNFR-1 associated death domain protein (“N-TRADD”), as well as the identification and characterization of a C-TRAF2 binding active site of N-TRADD. Also provided for by the present invention are methods of utilizing the three dimensional structures for the design and selection of potent and selective inhibitors of TNF signaling pathways.
