Gene
TNFSF12
Protein
Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 12
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
249 amino acids
Function
Binds to FN14 and possibly also to TNRFSF12/APO3. Weak inducer of apoptosis in some cell types. Mediates NF-kappa-B activation. Promotes angiogenesis and the proliferation of endothelial cells. Also involved in induction of inflammatory cytokines. Promotes IL8 secretion.
Similarity
Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family.
