Target
| Function | Receptor for TNFSF6/FASLG. 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. FAS-mediated apoptosis may have a role in the induction of peripheral tolerance, in the antigen-stimulated suicide of mature T-cells, or both. The secreted isoforms 2 to 6 block apoptosis (in vitro). |
| Tissue Specificity | Isoform 1 and isoform 6 are expressed at equal levels in resting peripheral blood mononuclear cells. After activation there is an increase in isoform 1 and decrease in the levels of isoform 6. |
| Sequence Similarities | Contains 1 death domain. Contains 3 TNFR-Cys repeats. |
| Cellular Localization | Secreted and Cell membrane. |
| Domain | Contains a death domain involved in the binding of FADD, and maybe to other cytosolic adapter proteins. |
