General annotation (Comments)

Function

May activate NF-kappa-B and promote apoptosis. May activate JNK and be involved in T-cell differentiation. Required for both normal cell body death and axonal pruning. Trophic-factor deprivation triggers the cleavage of surface APP by beta-secretase to release sAPP-beta which is further cleaved to release an N-terminal fragment of APP (N-APP). N-APP binds TNFRSF21 triggering caspase activation and degeneration of both neuronal cell bodies (via caspase-3) and axons (via caspase-6).

Subunit structure

Associates with TRADD. Interacts with N-APP By similarity.

Subcellular location

Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein Probable.

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in heart, brain, placenta, pancreas, lymph node, thymus and prostate. Detected at lower levels in lung, skeletal muscle, kidney, testis, uterus, small intestine, colon, spleen, bone marrow and fetal liver. Very low levels were found in adult liver and peripheral blood leukocytes.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 death domain.

Contains 4 TNFR-Cys repeats.

Caution

It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-25 is the initiator.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAH10241.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
