Human Gene TNFRSF10A (ENST00000221132.8) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens TNF receptor superfamily member 10a (TNFRSF10A), mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_003844) RefSeq Summary (NM_003844): The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptor is activated by tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TNFSF10/TRAIL), and thus transduces cell death signal and induces cell apoptosis. Studies with FADD-deficient mice suggested that FADD, a death domain containing adaptor protein, is required for the apoptosis mediated by this protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000221132.8 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000104689.10 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr8:23,190,452-23,225,102 Size: 34,651 Total Exon Count: 10 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr8:23,191,694-23,225,061 Size: 33,368 Coding Exon Count: 10
ID:TR10A_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 10A; AltName: Full=Death receptor 4; AltName: Full=TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptor 1; Short=TRAIL receptor 1; Short=TRAIL-R1; AltName: CD_antigen=CD261; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: Receptor for the cytotoxic ligand TNFSF10/TRAIL. The adapter molecule FADD recruits caspase-8 to the activated receptor. The resulting death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) performs caspase-8 proteolytic activation which initiates the subsequent cascade of caspases (aspartate-specific cysteine proteases) mediating apoptosis. Promotes the activation of NF- kappa-B. SUBUNIT: Can interact with TRADD and RIPK1. Interacts with ARAP1. INTERACTION: Q96P48:ARAP1; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-518861, EBI-710003; Q14790:CASP8; NbExp=9; IntAct=EBI-518861, EBI-78060; P50591:TNFSF10; NbExp=8; IntAct=EBI-518861, EBI-495373; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed. High levels are found in spleen, peripheral blood leukocytes, small intestine and thymus, but also in K-562 erythroleukemia cells, MCF-7 breast carcinoma cells and activated T-cells. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 death domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 3 TNFR-Cys repeats.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
