摘要
Introduction of Fas apoptosis inhibitory molecule(FAIM): FAIM was originally discovered in FASresistant mouse primary B lymphocytes in 1999, and was thought of as a FAS-apoptosis inhibitor based on overexpression studies(Schneider et al., 1999). FAIM is an approximately 20 k Da intracellular protein, but a subsequent study identified an alternatively spliced form.
