Fas ligand or FasL is a homotrimeric type II transmembrane protein expressed on cytotoxic T lymphocytes. It signals through trimerization of FasR, which spans the membrane of the target cell.This trimerization usually leads to apoptosis, or cell death. Soluble Fas ligand is generated by cleaving membrane-bound FasL at a conserved cleavage site by the external matrix metalloproteinase MMP-7.eceptors [edit]. 1  FasR: The Fas receptor (FasR), or CD95, is the most intensely studied member of the death receptor family. 2  DcR3: Decoy receptor 3 (DcR3) is a recently discovered decoy receptor of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily that binds to FasL, LIGHT, and TL1A.
Overview of Apoptosis. Apoptosis is the tightly controlled pattern of cell death necessary for typical growth and development in multicellular organisms. Defective apoptosis can result in abnormal development and pathogenesis. Caspases cleave target proteins at specific amino acid residues during a programmed proteolytic cascade.
