Abstract: | The human dad-1 cDNA homolog was isolated from rice plants.The amino acid sequence of the predicted protein product iswell conserved in both animals and plants. This rice dad-1 homologcan rescue the temperature-sensitive dad-1 mutants of hamstercells from apoptotic death, suggesting that the rice dad-1 homologalso functions as a suppressor for programmed cell death.
