TAK1 is a ubiquitin-dependent kinase of MKK and IKK

TL;DR: The purification and identification of TRIKA2, which is composed of TAK1, TAB1 and TAB2, a protein kinase complex previously implicated in IKK activation through an unknown mechanism, indicate that ubiquitination has an important regulatory role in stress response pathways, including those of IKK and JNK.
Journal ArticleDOI

The kinase TAK1 can activate the NIK-IκB as well as the MAP kinase cascade in the IL-1 signalling pathway

TL;DR: It is shown that the MAPKK kinase TAK1 acts upstream of NIK in the IL-1-activated signalling pathway and that TAK 1 associates with TRAF6 during IL- 1 signalling, which indicates that Taker1 links TRAf6 to the NIK–IKK cascade in theIL-1 signalling pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipopolysaccharide stimulates the MyD88-independent pathway and results in activation of IFN-regulatory factor 3 and the expression of a subset of lipopolysaccharide-inducible genes.

TL;DR: The characterization of the MyD88-independent pathway via TLR4 is reported, a MyD 88-dependent pathway that is critical to the induction of inflammatory cytokines and a Myd88/TNFR-associated factor 6- independent pathway that regulates induction of IP-10.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interferon-|[alpha]| induction through Toll-like receptors involves a direct interaction of IRF7 with MyD88 and TRAF6

TL;DR: It is shown that TLR-mediated IFN-α induction requires the formation of a complex consisting of MyD88, TRAF6 and IRF7 as well as TRAF 6-dependent ubiquitination.
