Function | Apoptotic adapter molecule that recruits caspases CASP8 or CASP10 to the activated FAS/CD95 or TNFRSF1A/TNFR-1 receptors (PubMed:7538907, PubMed:23955153, PubMed:19118384, PubMed:20935634, PubMed:16762833, PubMed:24025841, PubMed:9184224). The resulting aggregate called the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) performs CASP8 proteolytic activation (PubMed:7538907, PubMed:19118384, PubMed:20935634, PubMed:16762833, PubMed:9184224). Active CASP8 initiates the subsequent cascade of caspases mediating apoptosis (PubMed:16762833). Involved in interferon-mediated antiviral immune response, playing a role in the positive regulation of interferon signaling (PubMed:21109225). |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is an adaptor moleculethat interacts with various cell surface receptors and mediatescell apoptotic signals. Through its C-terminal death domain, thisprotein can be recruited by TNFRSF6/Fas-receptor, tumor necrosisfactor receptor, TNFRSF25, and TNFSF10/TRAIL-receptor, and thus itparticipates in the death signaling initiated by these receptors.Interaction of this protein with the receptors unmasks theN-terminal effector domain of this protein, which allows it torecruit caspase-8, and thereby activate the cysteine proteasecascade. Knockout studies in mice also suggest the importance ofthis protein in early T cell development.
