Tumor Necrosis Factor Ligand Superfamily Member 13BNCIt concept
Preferred Label : Tumor Necrosis Factor Ligand Superfamily Member 13B;
NCIt synonyms : B Lymphocyte Stimulator; TALL-1; CD257; CD257 Antigen; Dendritic Cell-Derived TNF-Like Molecule; BLyS; BAFF; TNF- and APOL-Related Leukocyte Expressed Ligand 1; B-Cell-Activating Factor; Antigen CD257; TNF Homolog That Activates Apoptosis, NKFB, and JNK; B-Lymphocyte Stimulator; TNFSF13B;
CISMeF acronym : TNFSF13B;
NCIt definition : Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 13B (285 aa, 31 kDa) is encoded by
the human TNFSF13B gene. This protein is involved in signal transduction and the modulation
of B- and T-cell proliferation.;
NCIt note : Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 13B may be involved in signaling that
leads to MYC upregulation in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. (PNAS 2010; 107: 18956-18960.); Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 13B is a ligand for the receptors
TNFRSF13B, TNFRSF17, and TNFRSF13C. It is a transmembrane protein that can be post-translationally
cleaved to release a soluble product.;
