Official Full Name: TNF receptor superfamily member 14<br />Also known as: TR2; ATAR; HVEA; HVEM; CD270; LIGHTR<br />This gene encodes a member of the TNF (tumor necrosis factor) receptor superfamily. The encoded protein functions in signal transduction pathways that activate inflammatory and inhibitory T-cell immune response. It binds herpes simplex virus (HSV) viral envelope glycoprotein D (gD), mediating its entry into cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
