AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.
Low-frequency RNA-Seq exon junction(s) not annotated.
Annotated transcripts do not represent all possible combinations of alternative exons and/or alternative promoters.

Dredd protein has two death effector domains, and a caspase-like domain.
Heterotetramer that consists of two anti-parallel arranged heterodimers, each one formed by a 15 kDa (caspase-8 subunit p15) and a 10 kDa (caspase-8 subunit p10) subunit (PubMed:9740659). Interacts (via N-terminus) with Diap2; likely to bind Diap2 simultaneously with Fadd to form a trimeric complex (PubMed:10934188, PubMed:22549468).
Polyubiquitinated by Diap2 following activation of the immune deficiency (Imd) pathway.

Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see GBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.
For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.

Changed ‘protein’ to ‘caspase’ in the gene fullname to be more informative and consistent with fullnames of other caspase-encoding genes.
Dredd is necessary to provide immunity to reactive oxygen species-resistant pathogens.
