RELT
protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 19L is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RELT gene.
Function
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. This receptor is especially abundant in hematologic tissues. It has been shown to activate the NF-kappaB pathway and selectively bind TNF receptor-associated factor 1 (TRAF1). This receptor is capable of stimulating T-cell proliferation in the presence of CD3 signaling, which suggests its regulatory role in immune response. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding the same protein have been reported.
The public source identifies “RELT” as protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around RELT, protein-coding and gene.
Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “RELT”, the useful work is to connect “protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
The date and method of observation matter as much as the stated conclusion, especially where classification or consensus has changed. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 11, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q18047917. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
Scientific names, classifications and consensus can change while older terminology persists in catalogues and historical literature. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
How to read it
Check terminology, classification and the date of the cited evidence. Scientific names and technical consensus can change while older records retain historical value.
- Current terminology
- Classification context
- Finding cited technical literature
Primary datasets, specimen catalogues, standards bodies and the most recent peer-reviewed literature.
Three-step research path
- Establish the record: confirm the title “RELT”, its source revision and the description used here.
- Expand the search: follow RELT primary sources, RELT archive and RELT research across catalogues and specialist indexes.
- Test the account: compare the strongest cited source with the responsible institution’s current record and note any disagreement.
