DR6/TNFRSF21, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His)

Tnfrsf21 Protein, also known as death receptor 6 (DR6), CD358, or BM-018, is highly expressed in differentiating neurons as well as in the adult brain, and is upregulated in injured neurons. DR6 negatively regulates neuron, axon, and oligodendrocyte survival, hinders axondendrocyte and oligodendrocyte regeneration and its inhibition has a neuro-protective effect in nerve injury. It activates nuclear factor kappa-B (NFkB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 (MAPK8, also called c-Jun N-terminal kinase 1), and induces cell apoptosis by associating with TNFRSF1A-associated via death domain (TRADD), which is known to mediate signal transduction of tumor necrosis factor receptors. DR6/TNFRSF21 Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His) is the recombinant cynomolgus-derived DR6/TNFRSF21 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.
