| Function | Cytokine which is involved in epithelial-mesenchymal signaling during morphogenesis of ectodermal organs. Functions as a ligand activating the DEATH-domain containing receptors EDAR and EDA2R. Isoform TAA binds only to the receptor EDAR, while isoform TA-A2 binds exclusively to the receptor EDA2R. May also play a role in cell adhesion. Isoform TAA binds only to the receptor EDAR, while isoform TA-A2 binds exclusively to the receptor EDA2R. Isoform TA-A2 binds exclusively to the receptor EDA2R. |
