Descriptor proteína ligando fas
Entry term(s) antígenos CD178
miembro 6 de la superfamilia de ligandos del factor de necrosis tumoral
Scope note: Proteína transmembranaria que pertenece a la superfamilia del factor de necrosis tumoral que fue descubierta originalmente en las células del linaje linfoide-mieloide, y que incluyen los LINFOCITOS T activados y las CÉLULAS ASESINAS NATURALES. Desempeña un papel importante en la homeostasis inmunitaria y en la toxicidad mediada por células al unirse al RECEPTOR FAS y desencadenar la APOPTOSIS.

Scope note: A transmembrane protein belonging to the tumor necrosis factor superfamily that was originally discovered on cells of the lymphoid-myeloid lineage, including activated T-LYMPHOCYTES and NATURAL KILLER CELLS. It plays an important role in immune homeostasis and cell-mediated toxicity by binding to the FAS RECEPTOR and triggering APOPTOSIS.
