NF-kappa B p50 subunit; NF-kappa B p105 subunit; NF-kappa C; DNA-binding factor KBF1; EBP-1 (NFKB1)

Function: - p105 precursor processed to p50 - component of the NF-kappa-B p65-p50 complex - component of NF-kappa-B p65-p50 complex - component of the NF- kappa-B p50-p50 complex - component of the NF-kappa-B p105-p50 complex - component of the NF-kappa-B p50-c-Rel complex - component of a complex consisting of the NF-kappa-B p50-p50 homodimer & BCL3. - NF-kappa-B heterodimeric p65-p50 & RelB-p50 complexes are transcriptional activators. - NF-kappa-B p50-p50 homodimer is a transcriptional repressor, but can act as a transcriptional activator when associated with BCL3 - NFKB1 appears to have dual functions such as cytoplasmic retention of attached NF-kappa-B proteins by p105 & generation of p50 by a cotranslational processing - proteasome-mediated process ensures the production of both p50 & p105 & preserves their independent function, although processing of NFKB1/p105 also appears to occur post-translationally - p50 binds to the kappa-B consensus sequence 5'-GGRNNYYCC-3', located in the enhancer region of genes involved in immune response & acute phase reactions - in a complex with MAP3K8, NFKB1/p105 represses MAP3K8- induced MAPK signaling; active MAP3K8 is released by proteasome-dependent degradation of NFKB1/p105 - also interacts with MAP3K8 - NF-kappa-B p50 subunit interacts with NCOA3 coactivator, which may coactivate NF-kappa-B dependent expression via its histone acetyltransferase activity - interacts with DSIPI; this interaction prevents nuclear translocation & DNA-binding - interacts with SPAG9 & UNC5CL - NFKB1/p105 interacts with CFLAR; the interaction inhibits p105 processing into p50 - NFKB1/p105 forms a ternary complex with MAP3K8 & TNIP2 - interacts with GSK3B; the interaction prevents processing of p105 to p50. - NFKB1/p50 interacts with NFKBIE - NFKB1/p50 interacts with NFKBIZ - nuclear factor NF-kappa-B p50 subunit interacts with IKBNS - while translation occurs, the particular unfolded structure after the GRR repeat promotes the generation of p50 making it an acceptable substrate for the proteasome (cotranslational processing); the processed form is active & the unprocessed form acts as an inhibitor (I kappa B-like), being able to form cytosolic complexes with NF-kappa B, trapping it in the cytoplasm - complete folding of the region downstream of the GRR repeat precludes processing - phosphorylation at Ser-903 & Ser-907 primes p105 for proteolytic processing in response to TNF-alpha stimulation - phosphorylation at Ser-927 & Ser-932 are required for BTRC/BTRCP-mediated proteolysis - polyubiquitination seems to allow p105 processing Structure: - p105 processed to p50 - homodimer (dubbed NF-kappa C) - heterodimer with other NF kappa B proteins - the C-terminus of p105 might be involved in cytoplasmic retention, inhibition of DNA-binding, & transcription activation - glycine-rich region (GRR) appears to be a critical element in the generation of p50 - contains 7 ANK repeats - contains 1 death domain - contains 1 RHD (Rel-like) domain Compartment: - nucleus, cytoplasm - nuclear, but also found in the cytoplasm in an inactive form complexed to an inhibitor (I-kappa-B) Alternative splicing: named isoforms=3 Expression: - NF-kappa B p50 homodimer found in resting T cells - induced by phorbol ester & TNF-alpha
