InnateDB Gene

IDBG-84584 (TNFRSF18)

Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Receptor for TNFSF18. Seems to be involved in interactions between activated T-lymphocytes and endothelial cells and in the regulation of T-cell receptor-mediated cell death. Mediated NF-kappa-B activation via the TRAF2/NIK pathway.

Subcellular Localization

Isoform 1: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.Isoform 2: Secreted.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Expressed in lymph node, peripheral blood leukocytes and weakly in spleen.
