Description
Product Characteristics:
IRAK or Interleukin-1 Receptor-associated Kinase 1, is one of two putative serine/threonine kinases that become associated with the interleukin-1 receptor (IL1R) upon stimulation. This protein is partially responsible for IL1-induced upregulation of the ubiquitous transcription factor NF-kappa B.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm, Nucleus, Cell membrane
Synonyms: Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-like 2, IRAK-2, IRAK2
Target Information: IRAK2 encodes the interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 2, one of two putative serine/threonine kinases that become associated with the interleukin-1 receptor (IL1R) upon stimulation. IRAK2 is reported to participate in the IL1-induced upregulation of NF-kappaB. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
