Synthetic receptor platform to identify loss-of-function single nucleotide variants and designed mutants in the death receptor Fas/CD95.

Abstract excerpt

Synthetic biology has emerged as a useful technology for studying cytokine signal transduction. Recently, we described fully synthetic cytokine receptors to phenocopy trimeric receptors such as the death receptor Fas/CD95. Using a nanobody as an extracellular-binding domain for mCherry fused to the natural receptor's transmembrane and intracellular domain, trimeric mCherry ligands were able to induce cell death....
