Function
Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF6/FAS, a receptor that transduces the apoptotic signal into cells. May be involved in cytotoxic T-cell mediated apoptosis and in T-cell development. TNFRSF6/FAS-mediated apoptosis may have a role in the induction of peripheral tolerance, in the antigen-stimulated suicide of mature T-cells, or both. Binding to the decoy receptor TNFRSF6B/DcR3 modulates its effects. -
Involvement in disease
Defects in FASLG are the cause of autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome type 1B (ALPS1B) [MIM:601859]; also known as Canale-Smith syndrome (CSS). ALPS is a childhood syndrome involving hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia with massive lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family. -
Post-translational
modificationsN-glycosylated.
The soluble form derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing. -
Cellular localization
Cell membrane. Secreted. May be released into the extracellular fluid, probably by cleavage form the cell surface. - Information by UniProt
