Anti-DR3/TNFRSF25 Antibody Picoband®

TNFRSF25 (Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily Member 25), also known as LARD, APO3, DR3 or TNFR25, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNFRSF25 gene. Members of the mammalian tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family are cell-surface proteins that interact with a corresponding TNF-related ligand family. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, Marsters et al. (1996) mapped the Apo3 gene to 1p36.3. Marsters et al. (1996) showed that ectopic expression of Apo3 in mammalian cells triggered apoptosis and activated the transcription factor NF-kappa-B. They suggested that, like TNFR1, Apo3 may regulate distinct signaling pathways in different cellular contexts.

Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 25; Apo-3; Apoptosis-inducing receptor AIR; Apoptosis-mediating receptor DR3; Apoptosis-mediating receptor TRAMP; Death receptor 3; Lymphocyte-associated receptor of death; LARD; Protein WSL; Protein WSL-1; TNFRSF25; APO3, DDR3, DR3, TNFRSF12, WSL, WSL1; UNQ455/PRO779

Abundantly expressed in thymocytes and lymphocytes. Detected in lymphocyte-rich tissues such as thymus, colon, intestine, and spleen. Also found in the prostate.

Receptor for TNFSF12/APO3L/TWEAK. Interacts ly with the adapter TRADD. Mediates activation of NF-kappa-B and induces apoptosis. May play a role in regulating lymphocyte homeostasis.
