Description
RELT (RELT TNF receptor) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 11q13.4. It encodes a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF). The protein is a type I transmembrane receptor involved in immune regulation, cell survival, and apoptosis. RELT is expressed predominantly in hematopoietic tissues and is implicated in immune responses and cancer.

Protein Summary
The RELT protein (UniProt Q969Z4) is a 430-amino acid type I transmembrane receptor with an extracellular domain containing cysteine-rich repeats characteristic of the TNF receptor superfamily. It is involved in activating NF-kappaB and MAPK pathways, modulating immune cell survival and apoptosis. RELT is predominantly expressed in hematopoietic tissues and may play a role in tumor immunity.
