| Function |
Adapter protein and signal transducer that links members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family to different signaling pathways. Plays a role in the activation of NF-kappa-B and JNK, and in the regulation of cell survival and apoptosis. Regulates activation of NF-kappa-B in response to signaling through Toll-like receptors. Required for normal skeleton development, and for normal development of the respiratory tract (By similarity). Required for activation of RPS6KB1 in response to TNF signaling. Modulates TRAF6 functions. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12023963, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12801526, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16052631, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16157600, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18953416, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19937093}.
