Fas

Fas can mean the following:

  • Fas receptor, an important cell surface receptor protein of the TNF receptor family known also as CD95, that induces apoptosis on binding Fas ligand.
  • Fes, Morocco, the third largest city in Morocco, as an alternate spelling
  • Poti, Georgia, a port city in Georgia
  • Latin for "permissible, right" as a concept of ancient Roman religion; see Glossary of ancient Roman religion#fas
  • FAS can stand for:

  • Architecture and Surveying Institute, formerly the Faculty of Architects and Surveyors
  • Faculty of Arts and Science
  • Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences
  • University of Toronto Faculty of Arts and Science
  • Fatty acid synthase
  • Federal Aid Highway System, roads built in the United States with funds provided by the federal government
  • Federally assisted secondary road, roads built in the United States with funds provided by the federal government
  • Federation of American Scientists, a non-profit organization formed in 1945 by scientists from the Manhattan Project
  • Fas receptor

    The FAS receptor (FasR), also known as apoptosis antigen 1 (APO-1 or APT), cluster of differentiation 95 (CD95) or tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 6 (TNFRSF6) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNFRSF6 gene.

    The Fas receptor is a death receptor on the surface of cells that leads to programmed cell death (apoptosis). It is one of two apoptosis pathways, the other being the mitochondrial pathway. FasR is located on chromosome 10 in humans and 19 in mice. Similar sequences related by evolution (orthologs) are found in most mammals.

    Gene

    FAS receptor is located on the long arm of chromosome 10 (10q24.1) in humans and on chromosome 19 in mice. The gene lies on the plus (Watson strand) and is 25,255 bases in length organised into 9 protein encoding exons.

    Protein

    Previous reports have identified as many as eight splice variants, which are translated into seven isoforms of the protein. Apoptosis-inducing Fas receptor is dubbed isoform 1 and is a type 1 transmembrane protein. Many of the other isoforms are rare haplotypes that are usually associated with a state of disease. However, two isoforms, the apoptosis-inducing membrane-bound form and the soluble form, are normal products whose production via alternative splicing is regulated by the cytotoxic protein TIA1.

    SFAS 157

    In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) of the United States issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 157: Fair Value Measurements), which “defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.” This statement is effective for financial reporting fiscal periods commencing after November 15, 2007 and the interim periods applicable.

    Defining "fair value"

    Paragraph 5 of SFAS No. 157 (also known as ASC 820 in the updated FASB Codification) defines fair value as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” Of note, this Statement requires consideration of the exit price paid (if liability) or received (if asset) in a hypothetical transaction in an orderly market (i.e., not a forced liquidation or sold under duress).

    A Passed Life

    by: FOZZY

    Mystery finds me in darkness
    Sun won't shine
    Blistering pain from a passed life
    Cross that line
    (CHORUS)
    Into the moonlight I ride
    One-way trip, to the other side
    Into the moonlight I ride
    Losing my grip, I cannot hide
    Standing on top of a mountain
    Long way down
    Hearing the voice of a madman
    Hit the ground
    (CHORUS)
    Into the moonlight I ride
    One-way trip to the other side
    Into the moonlight I ride
    Losing my grip, I cannot hide
    Into the casket I go
    Debt has been paid seeds have been sown
    End of the line all that I know
    Into Inferno I crawl
    Licking the flames, tasting my fall
    Melting away sirens that call
    (CHORUS)
    Into the moonlight I ride
    One-way trip to the other side
    Into the moonlight I ride
    Losing my grip, I cannot hide
    Dreaming about my passed life
    Into the moonlight I ride
    One-way trip to the other side
    Into the moonlight I ride
    Losing my grip, I cannot hide
    Oh I can't hide
    From my passed life
    Oh I can't hide
