Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 8784
Gene name TNF receptor superfamily member 18
Gene symbol TNFRSF18
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
AITRCD357ENERGENGITRGITR-D
Chromosome 1
Chromosome location 1p36.33
Summary This gene encodes a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. The encoded receptor has been shown to have increased expression upon T-cell activation, and it is thought to play a key role in dominant immunological self-tolerance maintained by CD25(+)CD4(+)

Q9Y5U5
Protein name Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 18 (Activation-inducible TNFR family receptor) (Glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related protein) (CD antigen CD357)
Protein function Receptor for TNFSF18. Seems to be involved in interactions between activated T-lymphocytes and endothelial cells and in the regulation of T-cell receptor-mediated cell death. Mediated NF-kappa-B activation via the TRAF2/NIK pathway.
