death domain binding [GO_0070513]

Binding to a death domain of a protein. The death domain (DD) is a homotypic protein interaction module composed of a bundle of six alpha-helices. DD bind each other forming oligomers. Some DD-containing proteins are involved in the regulation of apoptosis and inflammation through their activation of caspases and NF-kappaB. For binding to the death effector domain, consider instead the term ‘death effector domain binding ; GO:0035877’.
