Gene Symbol

TNFSF10

Protein Name

tumor necrosis factor (ligand) superfamily, member 10

Synonyms

Apo-2L; APO2L; CD253; TL2; TRAIL;

Species

Homo sapiens

Ensembl Protein

InnateDB Gene

IDBG-65161 (TNFSF10)

Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF10A/TRAILR1, TNFRSF10B/TRAILR2, TNFRSF10C/TRAILR3, TNFRSF10D/TRAILR4 and possibly also to TNFRSF11B/OPG. Induces apoptosis. Its activity may be modulated by binding to the decoy receptors TNFRSF10C/TRAILR3, TNFRSF10D/TRAILR4 and TNFRSF11B/OPG that cannot induce apoptosis.

Subcellular Localization

Membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Widespread; most predominant in spleen, lung and prostate.
