Figures

Figure 1
Schematic representation of TRAFs 1 through 7. TRAFs 2,3,5, and 6, share the conserved TRAF domain, consisting of the coiled-coil, TRAFN domain and the TRAF-C domain, also known as a MATH domain, as well as a RING domain and a series of Zn fingers. TRAF1 differs from the other TRAFs in lacking the RING domain. TRAF3 and TRAF4 have nuclear localization sequences. TRAF7 lacks the TRAF domain, which is replaced by a series of WD40 domains (adapted from reference Park).
