FAMILY

tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily

CATEGORY

receptor membrane

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane
text	single-pass type I membrane protein

basic FUNCTION	involved in the induction of the caspase-independent apoptosis
	can mediate activation of JNK and NF-kappa-B
	acting as a tumor necrosis factor receptor
	playing an essential role in embryonic development
	may play some roles in the developing and adult olfactory system (Morikawa 2008)
	mediating cellular responses to myelin inhibitors
	essential role in hair follicle development (Pispa 2008)
	novel function of TNFRSF19 as a factor mediating differentiation signals that determine the mesenchymal (stromal) stem cell differentiating fate into osteoblasts or adipocytes (Qiu 2010)

CELLULAR PROCESS	cell life, cell death/apoptosis

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

development

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

signal transduction

	JNK cascade
	EDAR and TNFSFR19 signalling pathways act redundantly to regulate initiation of hair follicle development(Pispa 2008)

a component

forming a functional receptor complex with NgR and LINGO-1

INTERACTION
