Interleukin-1 Receptor-Associated Kinase 3
Expressed in peripheral leukocytes and monocytes by human IRAK3 Gene, 596-aa Interleukin-1 Receptor-Associated Kinase 3 contains an N-terminal death domain and central kinase domain. IRAK3 appears to activate NF-kappa-B via IL1R. IRAK3 interacts with MYD88 and TRAF6 signaling proteins in a manner similar to the other IRAKs. It prevents dissociation of IRAK and IRAK4 from MYD88 and formation of IRAK/TRAF6 complexes. But IRAK3 does not autophosphorylate in the manner of IRAK1. IRAK1, -2, and -3 mediate the TLR2-dependent response to lipopolysaccharide. IRAK3 is induced upon TLR stimulation and negatively regulates TLR signaling. (NCI Thesaurus)
