Name

FAIM2 Gene

Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 2

Predicted to enable calcium channel activity. Involved in regulation of neuron apoptotic process. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway via death domain receptors. Located in Golgi membrane and membrane raft.

THEMIS2 Gene

thymocyte selection associated family member 2

Predicted to be involved in T cell receptor signaling pathway and regulation of B cell activation. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

THYN1 Gene

thymocyte nuclear protein 1

This gene encodes a protein that is highly conserved among vertebrates and plant species and may be involved in the induction of apoptosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

APAF1 Gene

apoptotic peptidase activating factor 1

This gene encodes a cytoplasmic protein that initiates apoptosis. This protein contains several copies of the WD-40 domain, a caspase recruitment domain (CARD), and an ATPase domain (NB-ARC). Upon binding cytochrome c and dATP, this protein forms an oligomeric apoptosome. The apoptosome binds and cleaves caspase 9 preproprotein, releasing its mature, activated form. Activated caspase 9 stimulates the subsequent caspase cascade that commits the cell to apoptosis. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

TESPA1 Gene

thymocyte expressed, positive selection associated 1

Predicted to enable phospholipase binding activity and signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in COP9 signalosome assembly; positive regulation of T cell differentiation in thymus; and positive regulation of T cell receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within TCR signalosome assembly. Located in cytosol. Part of COP9 signalosome. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

ABALON Gene

apoptotic BCL2L1-antisense long non-coding RNA

THEMIS Gene

thymocyte selection associated

This gene encodes a protein that plays a regulatory role in both positive and negative T-cell selection during late thymocyte development. The protein functions through T-cell antigen receptor signaling, and is necessary for proper lineage commitment and maturation of T-cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

ACIN1 Gene

apoptotic chromatin condensation inducer 1

Apoptosis is defined by several morphologic nuclear changes, including chromatin condensation and nuclear fragmentation. This gene encodes a nuclear protein that induces apoptotic chromatin condensation after activation by caspase-3, without inducing DNA fragmentation. This protein has also been shown to be a component of a splicing-dependent multiprotein exon junction complex (EJC) that is deposited at splice junctions on mRNAs, as a consequence of pre-mRNA splicing. It may thus be involved in mRNA metabolism associated with splicing. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.

TIAF1 Gene

TGFB1-induced anti-apoptotic factor 1

THEMIS3P Gene

thymocyte selection associated family member 3, pseudogene

TOX Gene

thymocyte selection-associated high mobility group box

The protein encoded by this gene contains a HMG box DNA binding domain. HMG boxes are found in many eukaryotic proteins involved in chromatin assembly, transcription and replication. This protein may function to regulate T-cell development.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]

FAIM Gene

Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule

The protein encoded by this gene protects against death receptor-triggered apoptosis and regulates B-cell signaling and differentiation. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]
