Cd27 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Involved in CD27 signaling pathway; negative regulation of apoptotic process; and positive regulation of JNK cascade. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of T cell apoptotic process. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including femur; hemolymphoid system; intestine; pituitary gland; and reproductive system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lymphoproliferative syndrome 2. Orthologous to human CD27 (CD27 molecule). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Cd27 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • traf2 binding domain
  • extracellular domain
  • costimulatory domain
  • cytoplasmic domain
  • caspase inhibitor activity
  • intracellular domain
  • protein binding
  • cytosolic tail domain
  • Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF)
  • transmembrane receptor
