Decoy receptor 2


Decoy receptor 2, also known as TRAIL receptor 4 and tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 10D, is a human cell surface receptor of the TNF-receptor superfamily.

Function

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptor contains an extracellular TRAIL-binding domain, a transmembrane domain, and a truncated cytoplasmic death domain.
This receptor does not induce apoptosis, and has been shown to play an inhibitory role in TRAIL-induced cell apoptosis.
