Background
Toso is expressed by lymphoid and haematopoietic cells and is up-regulated by T-cell activation. Toso expressing cells have increased resistance to Fas-, FADD-, and TNFalpha-induced apoptosis. Toso is membrane bound, and is thought to directly bind to FADD, disrupting DISC formation and thus inhibiting caspase-8 activation. Toso is a potential proto-oncogene, and could be a therapeutic target for use in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Despite its predicted molecular weight, Toso often migrates at 60 kDa in SDS PAGE.Synonyms: Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 3, Regulator of Fas-induced apoptosis Toso
