Tnfsf10 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables TRAIL binding activity and tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily binding activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in central nervous system; genitourinary system; gut; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arteriosclerosis and small cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human TNFSF10 (TNF superfamily member 10). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Tnfsf10 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
