A Domain in TNF Receptors That Mediates Ligand-Independent Receptor Assembly and Signaling
Abstract
A conserved domain in the extracellular region of the 60- and 80-kilodalton tumor necrosis factor receptors (TNFRs) was identified that mediates specific ligand-independent assembly of receptor trimers. This pre–ligand-binding assembly domain (PLAD) is physically distinct from the domain that forms the major contacts with ligand, but is necessary and sufficient for the assembly of TNFR complexes that bind TNF-α and mediate signaling. Other members of the TNFR superfamily, including TRAIL receptor 1 and CD40, show similar homotypic association. Thus, TNFRs and related receptors appear to function as preformed complexes rather than as individual receptor subunits that oligomerize after ligand binding.

FAS and TRAILR ligands stabilize preformed receptor homotrimers to induce a conformational change enabling DD-dependent FADD association.
“In the case of FAS and TRAILRs, the cognate ligands—namely, FAS ligand (FASLG; also known as CD95L or APO-1L) and TNF superfamily member 10 (TNFSF10; best known as TRAIL), respectively—stabilize preformed receptor homotrimers to induce a conformational change at their intracellular tails that enables the death domain (DD)-dependent association of the adapter Fas associated via death domain (FADD)”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
