    basic FUNCTION
  • inducing a caspase-dependent apoptotic pathway
  • acting as a receptor for the cytotoxic ligand TNFSF10
  • promoting the activation of NF-kappa-B
  • with TNFSF10 and TNFRSF10B, play an important role in inflammation
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, cell death/apoptosis

    protein
  • interacting with TRADD and RIP
  • binding to APO2L
  • endogenous MARCHF8 regulates the steady-state cell surface expression of TNFRS10A
  • TNK2 is an essential player in the spatial regulation of TNFSR10A, TNFSR10B
  • DDIT3 and KAT2A cooperatively up-regulate TNFRSF10A and TNFRSF10B
  • cell & other
    REGULATION
    induced by TP53 inducible
    alpha-tocopheryl succinate (alpha-TOS) in a p53-dependent manner
    repressed by HH (silencing by HH requires an intact GLI3 activity)
    Other regulated by TNFRSF10B
    only pro-apoptotic signaling through TNFRSF10A and TNFRSF10B has been found to be regulated by N- and O-glycosylation, respectively
