Gene information for TNFRSF4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7293
Official gene symbolTNFRSF4
Full nametumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 4
Aliases,ACT35,CD134,OX40,TXGP1L,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptor has been shown to activate NF-kappaB through its interaction with adaptor proteins TRAF2 and TRAF5. Knockout studies in mice suggested that this receptor promotes the expression of apoptosis inhibitors BCL2 and BCL2lL1/BCL2-XL, and thus suppresses apoptosis. The knockout studies also suggested the roles of this receptor in CD4+ T cell response, as well as in T cell-dependent B cell proliferation and differentiation. [provided by RefSeq]
