Abstract
Abstract Polypeptides and mutants and variants associated with programmed cell death in mammalian cells and DNA sequences, and fragments and derivatives thereof, encoding the polypeptides are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods for detecting programmed cell death in mammalian cells, a method of activating programmed cell death in unwanted mammalian cells, and methods for preventing unwanted cell death occurring in degenerative disorders of mammals.
