Digital construction and comparison of hypotetical three dimensional protein models of human tumour necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor (TRAF) genes
TRAFs are the cytoplasmic adapter proteins that interact with the Tumour Necrosis Factor Receptor (TNFR) family. In human and mammals, there are seven members (TRAF1 - 7) in the TRAFs family. These members share a common TRAF domain at the Carboxyl terminus (C-terminus) and zinc fingers at the amino...
