    Summary
    The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptor contains a death domain. It has been shown to play a central role in the physiological regulation of programmed cell death, and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various malignancies and diseases of the immune system. The interaction of this receptor with its ligand allows the formation of a death-inducing signaling complex that includes Fas-associated death domain protein (FADD), caspase 8, and caspase 10. The autoproteolytic processing of the caspases in the complex triggers a downstream caspase cascade, and leads to apoptosis. This receptor has been also shown to activate NF-kappaB, MAPK3/ERK1, and MAPK8/JNK, and is found to be involved in transducing the proliferating signals in normal diploid fibroblast and T cells. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, some of which are candidates for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The isoforms lacking the transmembrane domain may negatively regulate the apoptosis mediated by the full length isoform. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

    Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome

    Summary from GeneReviews: Autoimmune Lymphoproliferative Syndrome Go to GeneReviews

    Disease Characteristics
    Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS), caused by defective lymphocyte homeostasis, is characterized by: Non-malignant lymphoproliferation (lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly with or without hypersplenism) that often improves with age; Autoimmune disease, mostly directed toward blood cells; and Lifelong increased risk of both Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. In ALPS-FAS (the most common and best-characterized type of ALPS, associated with germline mutations in FAS), non-malignant lymphoproliferation typically manifests in the first years of life, inexplicably waxes and wanes, and then decreases without treatment in the second decade of life; however, neither splenomegaly nor the overall expansion of lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood decreases in many patients. Although autoimmunity is often not present at the time of diagnosis or at the time of the most extensive lymphoproliferation, autoantibodies can be detected before autoimmune disease manifests clinically. ALPS-FAS, caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in FAS, and characterized by severe lymphoproliferation before, at, or shortly after birth, usually results in death at an early age. ALPS-sFAS, resulting from somatic FAS mutations in selected cell populations, notably the alpha/beta double-negative T cells (alpha/beta-DNT cells), appears to be similar to ALPS-FAS resulting from germline mutations in FAS, keeping in mind that patients with somatic mutations need to be better characterized.
    Diagnosis Testing
    The diagnosis of ALPS is based on clinical findings; laboratory abnormalities, including defective in vitro tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 6 (Fas)-mediated apoptosis and T cells that express the alpha/beta T-cell receptor but lack both CD4 and CD8 (so-called alpha/beta-DNT cells); and identification of mutations in genes relevant for the Fas pathway of apoptosis. Mutations in FAS (TNFRSF6) are associated with ALPS-FAS and ALPS-sFAS. Mutations in FASLG (previously known as FASL, TNFSF6) and CASP10 have been identified in a few individuals with ALPS. Molecular genetic testing of FAS, FASLG, and CASP10 is available clinically.
    Genetic Counseling
    ALPS-FAS is generally inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Most individuals diagnosed with ALPS-FAS have a parent with a FAS mutation; the proportion of ALPS-FAS caused by either somatic mosaicism or de novo mutations is currently unknown. Each child of an individual with ALPS-FAS has a 50% chance of inheriting the FAS mutation. ALPS-FAS can also be inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, i.e., the consequence of homozygous or compound heterozygous (biallelic) FAS mutations. The parents of such an individual are likely to be heterozygotes, in which case each has one FAS mutant allele; these parents may have ALPS-related findings or may be clinically asymptomatic. Prenatal diagnosis for pregnancies at increased risk for a FAS, FASLG, or CASP10 mutation is possible if the disease-causing mutation(s) have been identified in an affected family member.

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
