| - | '''Tumor necrosis factor receptor''' (TNFR) or '''death receptor''' is a trimeric cytokine receptor which binds TNF. TNFR family contains several members and superfamily (TNFRSF) members. The extracellular domain of TNFR contains 2 to 6 cysteine-rich domains. '''TNFRSF 6''' is called '''Fas'''; '''TNFRSF 10B''' is called '''Dr5'''; '''TNFRSF 21''' is called '''Dr6'''; '''TNFRSF 11A''' is called '''RANK'''; '''TNFRSF 18''' is called '''GITRL'''. | + | '''Tumor necrosis factor receptor''' (TNFR) or '''death receptor''' is a trimeric cytokine receptor which binds TNF.
