Summary
Irak2 regulates cytokine and chemokine mRNA stability and translation in response to LPS stimulation in macrophages. The kinase activity of Irak2 is required for the optimal activation of mitogen activated protein kinase signalling, which regulates cytokine/chemokine production at post-transcriptional levels.
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
Summary
[Homo sapiens] IRAK2 has a role in TRAF6 ubiquitination in the Toll-like receptor (TLR) pathway and thus plays a more central role than IRAK1 in TLR signalling to NFkappaB.
[Homo sapiens] IRAK2 is critical in late-phase Toll-like receptor (TLR) responses, and IRAK1 and IRAK2 are essential for the initial responses to TLR stimulation.
[Homo sapiens] IRAK2 is required for LPS-mediated post-transcriptional control of cytokine and chemokine expression, which plays an essential role in TLR4-induced septic shock.
[Homo sapiens] IRAK2 induces cytokine and chemokine mRNA stability and translation in response to LPS stimulation in macrophages. The kinase activity of IRAK2 is required for the optimal activation of mitogen activated protein kinase signaling, which regulates cytokine/chemokine production at posttranscriptional levels.
[Homo sapiens] IRAK2 is required for both TLR4 and TLR8-mediated activation of NFkB and p38 MAP kinase, and the induction of TNF mRNA. In addition, IRAK2 is required for regulating MYD88-dependent TNF-alpha mRNA stability. (Phenotype was not observed in murine ortholog, Irak2)
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000134070:
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]
