Synthetic peptide derived from the C-terminal region of human TRAF6.
TRAFs (Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factors) are cytoplasmic adaptor proteins that associate with tumor necrosis factor receptors (TNFR), thus mediating tumor necrosis factor (TNF) induced signaling. The TRAF family consists of six members (TRAF1-6). TRAF proteins play an important role in regulating cellular death and cellular response to stress by mediating stimulation of AP-1 family through activation of MAP kinases, including JNK/SAPKs, ERKs and p38s. They are also involved in the regulation of inflammatory and anti-apoptotic responses through activation of the transcription factors of NF-kB.5 TRAF6 possesses several binding motifs in CD40, TRANCE-R and IRAK suggesting a crucial role in TRANCE-R signaling. It is involved in the activation of the anti-apoptotic serine/threonine kinase Akt/PKB through TRANCE-R. Due to its specific receptor-binding TRAF-C domain, TRAF6 is the only member of the TRAF family that also participates in signal transduction of the interlukin-1 receptor (IL-1R)/Toll-like receptor (TLR) superfamily.1,7,8 TRAF6 plays a crucial role in adaptive immunity, innate immunity, bone homeostasis, perinatal and postnatal survival, and cytokine signaling.
