PIDD (for p53 induced protein with a death domain) encodes a protein of 915 amino acids in mice (910 amino acids in humans) and contains seven tandem leucine rich repeats (LRR) in the amino terminus and a death domain in the carboxy terminus. PIDD mRNA is induced by g-irradiation in a p53-dependent manner and the basal level of PIDD mRNA is dependent on p53 status. Over-expression of PIDD inhibits cell growth in a p53-like manner by inducing apop-tosis. Antisense inhibition of PIDD expression has been shown to attenuate p53-mediated apoptosis, suggesting that PIDD expression is required for apoptosis. PIDD localizes to the cytosol.
