Facts about Signal peptide peptidase-like 2B.
Catalyzes the intramembrane cleavage of the anchored fragment of discard TNF-alpha (TNF), which promotes the release of the intracellular domain (ICD) for signaling to the nucleus (PubMed:16829952, PubMed:16829951). May play a role in the regulation of innate and adaptive immunity (PubMed:16829952).
