IRAK1 interleukin 1 receptor associated kinase 1

Gene ID: 3654, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: IRAK; pelle

Summary

This gene encodes the interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1, one of two putative serine/threonine kinases that become associated with the interleukin-1 receptor (IL1R) upon stimulation. This gene is partially responsible for IL1-induced upregulation of the transcription factor NF-kappa B. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
