Using a yeast 2-hybrid
screen with the cytosolic domain of p75(NTR) as bait, Mukai et al. (2000 obtained
cDNAs encoding mouse and human p75(NTR)-associated cell death executor, or
NADE. Human NADE is identical to the the HGR74 cDNA cloned by Rapp et al.
(1990) from an ovarian granulosa cDNA library. HGR74 was expressed in testis,
prostate, seminal vesicle, and ovarian granulosa cells.
