TNFRSF1A

TNF receptor superfamily member 1A

Nominated Target, Selected for Target Enabling Resource Development

This gene encodes a member of the TNF receptor superfamily of proteins. The encoded receptor is found in membrane-bound and soluble forms that interact with membrane-bound and soluble forms, respectively, of its ligand, tumor necrosis factor alpha. Binding of membrane-bound tumor necrosis factor alpha to the membrane-bound receptor induces receptor trimerization and activation, which plays a role in cell survival, apoptosis, and inflammation. Proteolytic processing of the encoded receptor results in release of the soluble form of the receptor, which can interact with free tumor necrosis factor alpha to inhibit inflammation. Mutations in this gene underlie tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS), characterized by fever, abdominal pain and other features. Mutations in this gene may also be associated with multiple sclerosis in human patients.

AD Risk Scores

About AD Risk Scores

The TREAT-AD Center at Emory-Sage-SGC has developed a Target Risk Score (TRS) to objectively rank the potential involvement of specific genes in AD. The TRS is derived by summing two component risk scores, the Genetic Risk Score and the Multi-omic Risk Score, each of which is derived from a meta-analysis of multiple harmonized data sets. More information about the methodology used to define these risk scores is available here.

AD Risk Scores for TNFRSF1A

The TRS for TNFRSF1A, along with the component Genetic and Multi-omic Risk Scores, is shown here. The scores for TNFRSF1A are superimposed on the genome-wide score distributions. If No Data is Currently Available is displayed for a score, that score was not calculated for TNFRSF1A.

Biological Domain Classification

About Biological Domains

A biological domain represents a standardized area of biology defined by a set of discrete, biologically coherent GO terms. The TREAT-AD Center at Emory-Sage-SGC has defined nineteen biological domains associated with AD, and objectively mapped genes to those biological domains using GO term annotations. More information about the methodology used to define AD biological domains, and to generate genome-wide biological domain mappings, is available here.
