DR4 is 56 kD member 10A of the TNFR superfamily (TNFRSF10A), also known as TRAIL-R1, Apo-2, and CD261.
It is expressed at low levels by activated T cells and some tumors. After TRAIL engagement, DR4 (TRAIL-R1), through activation of NF-κB, induces apoptosis in the TRAIL ligated cell.
The whole human DR4 genome was inserted at Hipp11 (H11) locus in B-hDR4 mice.
Human DR4 was detectable in homozygous B-hDR4 mice stimulated with anti-CD3ε in vivo but not in wild-type mice.
Gene targeting strategy for B-hDR4 mice. The whole human DR4 genome was inserted at Hipp11 (H11) locus in B-hDR4 mice.
