Product Details
Description | TNF-related weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) is a member of the TNF ligand family1 that has pleiotropic biological functions including proapoptotic, proangiogenic and proinflammatory activities.2 TWEAK induces skeletal muscle atrophy.3 TWEAK functions both as a type II transmembrane protein and as a cleaved soluble protein. TWEAK transcripts are expressed in heart, brain, skeletal muscle, pancreas, immune system, ovary, and placenta.4 | |

About CD255
The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand family. This protein is a ligand for the FN14/TWEAKR receptor. This cytokine has overlapping signaling functions with TNF, but displays a much wider tissue distribution. This cytokine, which exists in both membrane-bound and secreted forms, can induce apoptosis via multiple pathways of cell death in a cell type-specific manner. This cytokine is also found to promote proliferation and migration of endothelial cells, and thus acts as a regulator of angiogenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Some transcripts skip the last exon of this gene and continue into the second exon of the neighboring TNFSF13 gene; such read-through transcripts are contained in GeneID 407977, TNFSF12-TNFSF13.
