Human DR6 Protein, ECD (Extracellular Domain), Fc-fusion, Biotinylated, Recombinant
DR6 (death receptor 6), also known as CD358, is a single-pass, type I transmembrane glycoprotein in the TNF receptor superfamily (TNFRSF21). DR6 contains an extracellular domain (ECD) with 4 TNFR cysteine-rich repeats and a palmitylated cytoplasmic region with 1 death domain (DD). DR6 is expressed in most human tissues with the highest levels in heart, brain, placenta, pancreas, thymus, lymph node and several non-lymphoid cancer cell lines. Among hematopoietic cells, DR6 is expressed on monocytes, resting CD4+ T cells, and pro-, pre-, and naïve B cells. DR6 interacts with the adaptor protein TRADD and mediates signal transduction through its death domain. Expression of DR6 in mammalian cells induces the activation of NF-κB and JNK pathways as well as apoptosis. DR6 acts as an important regulatory molecule in T cell activation, and is involved in inflammation. DR6-defieicent mice have enhanced CD4+ T cell proliferation and are resistant to induced airway inflammation and experimental autoimmune encephalitis. DR6 is constitutively expressed on some prostate cancer cells and can be induced by TNF-α on other cytokines. DR6 is uniquely cleaved from tumor cell surface by the membrane- associated matrix metalloproteinase that is associated with tumor malignancy. DR6 is also expressed on developing neurons where it can bind APP fragment that is generated following deprivation of neurotrophic factors. APP binding to DR6 triggers DR6-mediated axonal pruning..
