Anti-phospho-TAB2 (Ser372)

The protein encoded by this gene is an activator of MAP3K7/TAK1, which is required for for the IL-1 induced activation of nuclear factor kappaB and MAPK8/JNK. This protein forms a kinase complex with TRAF6, MAP3K7 and TAB1, and it thus serves as an adaptor that links MAP3K7 and TRAF6. This protein, along with TAB1 and MAP3K7, also participates in the signal transduction induced by TNFSF11/RANKl through the activation of the receptor activator of NF-kappaB (TNFRSF11A/RANK), which may regulate the development and function of osteoclasts. Studies of the related mouse protein indicate that it functions to protect against liver damage caused by chemical stressors. Mutations in this gene cause congenital heart defects, multiple types, 2 (CHTD2). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Acts as an adapter linking MAP3K7/TAK1 and TRAF6 to 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains (PubMed:10882101, PubMed:11460167, PubMed:15327770, PubMed:22158122). The RanBP2-type zinc finger (NZF) specifically recognizes Lys-63'- linked polyubiquitin chains unanchored or anchored to the substrate proteins such as RIPK1/RIP1 and RIPK2: this acts as a scaffold to organize a large signaling complex to promote autophosphorylation of MAP3K7/TAK1, and subsequent activation of I-kappa-B-kinase (IKK) core complex by MAP3K7/TAK1 (PubMed:15327770, PubMed:18079694, PubMed:22158122). Regulates the IL1-mediated translocation of NCOR1 out of the nucleus. Involved in heart development (PubMed:20493459). [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:1000-2000. Cellular localization: Membrane , Peripheral membrane protein . Endosome membrane , Peripheral membrane protein . Lysosome membrane , Peripheral membrane protein . Cytoplasm, cytosol . Following IL1 stimulation, translocation occurs from the membrane to cytosol (PubMed:10882101). Interaction with TRIM38 promotes translocation from cytosol to endosome and lysosome (PubMed:24434549). .
