General annotation (Comments)

Function

Serine/threonine-protein kinase that plays a critical role in initiating innate immune response against foreign pathogens. Involved in Toll-like receptor (TLR) and IL-1R signaling pathways. Is rapidly recruited by MYD88 to the receptor-signaling complex upon TLR activation. Association with MYD88 leads to IRAK1 phosphorylation by IRAK4 and subsequent autophosphorylation and kinase activation. Phosphorylates E3 ubiquitin ligases Pellino proteins (PELI1, PELI2 and PELI3) to promote pellino-mediated polyubiquitination of IRAK1. Then, the ubiquitin-binding domain of IKBKG/NEMO binds to polyubiquitinated IRAK1 bringing together the IRAK1-MAP3K7/TAK1-TRAF6 complex and the NEMO-IKKA-IKKB complex. In turn, MAP3K7/TAK1 activates IKKs (CHUK/IKKA and IKBKB/IKKB) leading to NF-kappa-B nuclear translocation and activation. Alternatively, phosphorylates TIRAP to promote its ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. Phosphorylates the interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) to induce its activation and translocation to the nucleus, resulting in transcriptional activation of type I IFN genes, which drive the cell in an antiviral state. When sumoylated, translocates to the nucleus and phosphorylates STAT3 By similarity. Ref.4

Catalytic activity

ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.

Cofactor

Magnesium.

Subunit structure

Homodimer By similarity. Interacts with TOLLIP; this interaction occurs in the cytosol prior to receptor activation. Interacts with MYD88; this interaction recruits IRAK1 to the stimulated receptor complex. Interacts with IL1RL1. Interacts with IRAK1BP1 By similarity. Associates with TRAF6, PELI1 and IRAK4; this complex recruits MAP3K7/TAK1, TAB1 and TAB2 to mediate NF-kappa-B activation. Interacts (when polyubiquitinated) with IKBKG/NEMO By similarity. Ref.5 Ref.6 Ref.7

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity. Nucleus By similarity. Note: Translocates to the nucleus when sumoylated By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in liver, followed by kidney and skeletal muscle. Ref.4

Developmental stage

Expressed from E11 day to E18 day. Ref.4

Domain

The ProST region is composed of many proline and serine residues (more than 20 of each) and some threonines. This region is the site of IRAK-1 hyperphosphorylation By similarity.

Post-translational modification

Following recruitment on the activated receptor complex, phosphorylated on Thr-209, probably by IRAK4, resulting in a conformational change of the kinase domain, allowing further phosphorylations to take place. Thr-387 phosphorylation in the activation loop is required to achieve full enzymatic activity By similarity. Ref.4

Polyubiquitinated after cell stimulation with IL-1-beta by PELI1, PELI2 and PELI3. Polyubiquitination occurs with polyubiquitin chains linked through 'Lys-63'. Ubiquitination promotes interaction with NEMO/IKBKG. Also sumoylated; leading to nuclear translocation By similarity.

Disruption phenotype

Mice show a loss in TLR7- and TLR9-mediated IFN-alpha production in plasmacytoid dendritic cells demonstrating an important role in innate immune response. Ref.8

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family. Pelle subfamily.

Contains 1 death domain.

Contains 1 protein kinase domain.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAD13224.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
