TNFSF14
geneOn this page
Also known as LIGHTLTgHVEM-LCD258
Summary
TNFSF14 (TNF superfamily member 14, HGNC:11930) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19p13.3, encoding Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 14 (O43557). Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF3/LTBR.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand family. This protein is a ligand for TNFRSF14, which is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, and which is also known as a herpesvirus entry mediator (HVEM). This protein may function as a costimulatory factor for the activation of lymphoid cells and as a deterrent to infection by herpesvirus. This protein has been shown to stimulate the proliferation of T cells, and trigger apoptosis of various tumor cells. This protein is also reported to prevent tumor necrosis factor alpha mediated apoptosis in primary hepatocyte. Two alternatively spliced transcript variant encoding distinct isoforms have been reported.

Function. Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF3/LTBR. Binding to the decoy receptor TNFRSF6B modulates its effects. Acts as a ligand for TNFRSF14/HVEM. Upon binding to TNFRSF14/HVEM, delivers costimulatory signals to T cells, leading to T cell proliferation and IFNG production.
Subunit / interactions. Homotrimer. Interacts with TNFRSF14.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane Secreted Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Predominantly expressed in the spleen but also found in the brain. Weakly expressed in peripheral lymphoid tissues and in heart, placenta, liver, lung, appendix, and kidney, and no expression seen in fetal tissues, endocrine glands, or nonhematopoietic tumor lines.
