Tnfsf15 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable cytokine activity. Predicted to be involved in cell surface receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction; and positive regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within activation of NF-kappaB-inducing kinase activity. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Orthologous to human TNFSF15 (TNF superfamily member 15). [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 rat Tnfsf15 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
