(According to Entrez Gene, Wikipedia's Gene Wiki,
UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot, and/or UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
About This Section

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: FAIM3_HUMAN, O60667
Function: May play a role in the immune system processes. Protects cells from FAS-, TNF alpha- and
FADD-induced apoptosis without increasing expression of the inhibitors of apoptosis BCL2 and
BCLXL. Seems to activate an inhibitory pathway that prevents CASP8 activation following FAS
stimulation, rather than blocking apoptotic signals downstream. May inhibit FAS-induced apoptosis
by preventing CASP8 processing through CFLAR up-regulation
