Entrez ID 4049
Gene name Lymphotoxin alpha
Gene symbol LTA
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
LTTNFBTNFSF1TNLG1E
Chromosome 6
Chromosome location 6p21.33
Summary The encoded protein, a member of the tumor necrosis factor family, is a cytokine produced by lymphocytes. The protein is highly inducible, secreted, and forms heterotrimers with lymphotoxin-beta which anchor lymphotoxin-alpha to the cell surface. This pro

Protein name Lymphotoxin-alpha (LT-alpha) (TNF-beta) (Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 1)
Protein function Cytokine that in its homotrimeric form binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1, TNFRSF1B/TNFBR and TNFRSF14/HVEM (PubMed:9462508). In its heterotrimeric form with LTB binds to TNFRSF3/LTBR (PubMed:24248355). Lymphotoxin is produced by lymphocytes and is cytotox
