(A) Interaction analysis of wild-type FADD DED and Caspase-8 DEDs using GST pull-down. (B and C) Interaction analysis of FADD DED and Caspase-8 DEDs (I128A) and Caspase-8 DEDs mutants using the GST pull-down. GST-tagged FADD was bound to glutathione-sepharose 4B beads. Seven mutants (I128A/Y8D, I128A/E12A, I128A/E12R, I128A/K39A, I128A/K39D, I128A/ F122A, and I128A/L123A) of Caspase-8 DEDs showed defective interaction. (D) Observation of FADD DED-Caspase-8 DEDs co-expression complex by EM is shown. Middle panel of Figure 2D was recorded at magnification of a high-resolution image (84,000X). The relative magnitudes of the electron magnification were shown.
