Tnfsf9 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily binding activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of immature T cell proliferation in thymus. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in bone; connective tissue; hip; and metanephros. Orthologous to human TNFSF9 (TNF superfamily member 9). [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 Tnfsf9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
