Anti-TRAF2 (TRAP3, TRAP, E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRAF2, Tumor necrosis factor type 2 receptor-as

TRAF2 (TNF Receptor-Associated Factor 2), also called TRAP, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TRAF2 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF receptor (TNFR) associated factor (TRAF) protein family. TRAF2 is a common signal transducer for TNFR2 and CD40 that mediates activation of NF-kappa-B. Rothe et al. (1996) identified ITRAF, which binds to TRAF1, TRAF2, and TRAF3, and that when overexpressed inhibits TRAF2-mediated NF-kappa-B activation. They proposed that ITRAF is an inhibitor of TRAF function that regulates TRAF protein activity by sequestering TRAFs in a latent state in the cytoplasm. Kanamori et al. (2002) found that mouse Traf2 interacted directly with T2bp, and they presented evidence that T2BP is involved in TNF-mediated signaling by its interaction with TRAF2.
