Function

Forms a complex with YWHAB that acts to repress transcription of DUSP1 (By similarity). Required for embryonic development and the innate immune response. Downstream effector of the Toll-like receptor (TLR), TNF and IL-1 beta signaling pathways leading to the production of IL-6. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269PubMed:18066067}.
