interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase 1 (IRAK1)
Function:
- binds to the IL-1 type I receptor following IL-1 engagement, triggering intracellular signaling cascades leading to transcriptional up-regulation & mRNA stabilization
- isoform 1 binds rapidly but is then degraded allowing isoform 2 to mediate a slower, more sustained response to the IL-1
- isoform 2 is inactive suggesting that the kinase activity of this enzyme is not required for IL-1 signaling
- once phosphorylated, IRAK1 recruits the adapter protein PELI1
- IL-1 stimulation leads to the formation of a signaling complex which dissociates from the IL-1 receptor following the binding of PELI1
- interacts with IL1RL1
- interacts with IRAK1BP1
- autophosphorylation or phosphorylation by IRAK4 following recruitment to the IL-1RI is linked to ubiquitination & degradation of isoform 1
Cofactor: Mg+2
Structure:
- belongs to the protein kinase superfamily, TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family, Pelle subfamily
- contains 1 protein kinase domain
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=3
Expression:
- isoform 1 & isoform 2 are ubiquitously expressed in all tissues examined
- isoform 1 is more strongly expressed than isoform 2
