Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily Member 10B (DR5)

Target
DR5
Molecular classification
Receptor, Transmembrane protein, TNF-receptor superfamily
01

Overview

Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily Member 10B (DR5) is a death domain-containing transmembrane receptor that triggers apoptosis upon binding to TRAIL. Activation of DR5 recruits FADD, leading to caspase-8 activation and programmed cell death. DR5 is a promising therapeutic target for cancer due to its ability to selectively induce apoptosis in malignant cells.
