Function
Cytokine that binds to LTBR/TNFRSF3. May play a specific role in immune response regulation. Provides the membrane anchor for the attachment of the heterotrimeric complex to the cell surface. Isoform 2 is probably non-functional.
KEGG Pathway
Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction (hsa04060 )
NF-kappa B signaling pathway (hsa04064 )
Rheumatoid arthritis (hsa05323 )
Reactome Pathway
TNF receptor superfamily (TNFSF) members mediating non-canonical NF-kB pathway (R-HSA-5676594 )
TNFR2 non-canonical NF-kB pathway (R-HSA-5668541 )
