TNF receptor-associated factor 1, Epstein-Barr virus-induced protein 6, TRAF1, EBI6
Product description
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF
receptor (TNFR) associated factor (TRAF) protein family. TRAF
proteins associate with, and mediate the signal transduction from
various receptors of the TNFR superfamily. This protein and TRAF2
form a heterodimeric complex, which is required for
TNF-alpha-mediated activation of MAPK8/JNK and NF-kappaB. The
protein complex formed by this protein and TRAF2 also interacts
with inhibitor-of-apoptosis proteins (IAPs), and thus mediates the
anti-apoptotic signals from TNF receptors. The expression of this
protein can be induced by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). EBV infection
membrane protein 1 (LMP1) is found to interact with this and other
TRAF proteins; this interaction is thought to link LMP1-mediated B
lymphocyte transformation to the signal transduction from TNFR
family receptors. Three transcript variants encoding two different
isoforms have been found for this gene.1) Bailey, S.D., et al. Diabetes Care 33(10):2250-2253(2010)
