Tnfsf13b Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable receptor ligand activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of B cell proliferation and tumor necrosis factor-mediated signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of germinal center formation; positive regulation of lymphocyte activation; and transitional one stage B cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including focal adhesion; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Orthologous to human TNFSF13B (TNF superfamily member 13b). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]
