Description
Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 10b, official symbol TNFRSF10B, also known as Death receptor 5, CD262, TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptor 2 (TRAIL R2), is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily, and contains an intracellular death domain. This receptor can be activated by tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TNFSF10/TRAIL/APO-2L), and transduces an apoptosis signal. Studies with FADD-deficient mice suggested that FADD, a death domain containing adaptor protein, is required for the apoptosis mediated by this protein. TRAIL R2/CD262/TNFRSF10B was purified independently as the only receptor for TRAIL detectable on the surface of two different human cell lines that undergo apoptosis upon stimulation with TRAIL. TRAIL R2/CD262/TNFRSF10B contains two extracellular cysteine-rich repeats, typical for TNF receptor (TNFR) family members, and a cytoplasmic death domain. TRAIL R2/CD262/TNFRSF10B mediates apoptosis via the intracellular adaptor molecule FADD/MORT1. TRAIL receptors can signal both death and gene transcription, functions reminiscent of those of TNFR1 and TRAMP, two other members of the death receptor family. Defects in TRAIL R2/CD262/TNFRSF10B may be a cause of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) also known as squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.

Molecular weight
The recombinant human TNFRSF10B consists of 138 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 15.8 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of rhTNFRSF10B is approxiamtely 20-22 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.

Activity
1. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human TNFRSF10B at 10 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated TNFSF10 with a linear range of 0.625-20 ng/ml.
2. Measured by its ability to inhibit TRAIL-mediated cytotoxicity using L‑929 mouse fibroblast cells treated with TRAIL. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.025-0.275 μg/mL in the presence of 20 ng/ml Recombinant Human TRAIL/TNFSF10. -
