Preparation and Storage

Background: TRAIL R3/TNFRSF10C

Human TRAIL R3, also known as DcR1 (Decoy Receptor 1), LIT, and TRID, is a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-linked membrane protein which binds TRAIL (Apo2 Ligand) with high affinity. In the new TNF superfamily nomenclature, TRAIL R3 is referred to as TNFRSF10C. TRAIL R3 has the TRAIL-binding extracellular cysteine-rich domains but lacks the intracellular signalling domain. As a result, binding of TRAIL to TRAIL R3 does not transduce an apoptosis signal. Expression of TRAIL R3 has been shown to protect cells bearing TRAIL R1 and/or TRAIL R2 from TRAIL-induced apoptosis. A second TRAIL decoy receptor, which binds TRAIL with high-affinity but antagonizes TRAIL-induced apoptosis, named TRAIL R4, DcR2 or TRUNDD, has also been reported. The human soluble TRAIL R3/Fc chimera neutralizes the ability of TRAIL to induce apoptosis.
