Fas [tnfrsf6]-associated death domain (FADD) is involved in the extrinsic apoptosis pathway within zebrafish. In one study, inhibition of FADD during ectopic expression of FasL and Apo2L/TRAIL homologs in zebrafish demonstrated blocking of ligand induced apoptosis. Within humans, FADD is associated the proximal signal transduction of Fas. FADD has been implicated, along with FGF3, in human craniofacial disease. Haploinsufficiency of both FGF3 and FADD were identified as the likely causes of otodental syndrome and ocular coloboma. Spatiotemporal in situ hybridization in zebrafish embryos revealed that FADD is expressed during eye development.
