Biological Function Serine/threonine-protein kinase that plays a critical role in initiating innate immune response against foreign pathogens. Involved in Toll-like receptor (TLR) and IL-1R signaling pathways (PubMed:17878374). Is rapidly recruited by MYD88 to the receptor-signaling complex upon TLR activation to form the Myddosome together with IRAK2. Phosphorylates initially IRAK1, thus stimulating the kinase activity and intensive autophosphorylation of IRAK1. Phosphorylates E3 ubiquitin ligases Pellino proteins (PELI1, PELI2 and PELI3) to promote pellino-mediated polyubiquitination of IRAK1. Then, the ubiquitin-binding domain of IKBKG/NEMO binds to polyubiquitinated IRAK1 bringing together the IRAK1-MAP3K7/TAK1-TRAF6 complex and the NEMO-IKKA-IKKB complex. In turn, MAP3K7/TAK1 activates IKKs (CHUK/IKKA and IKBKB/IKKB) leading to NF-kappa-B nuclear translocation and activation. Alternatively, phosphorylates TIRAP to promote its ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. Phosphorylates NCF1 and regulates NADPH oxidase activation after LPS stimulation suggesting a similar mechanism during microbial infections. {PubMed:11960013, PubMed:12538665, PubMed:15084582, PubMed:17217339, PubMed:17337443, PubMed:17878374, PubMed:17997719, PubMed:20400509, PubMed:24316379}.
Research Areas Neuroscience
Background IRAK-4 activates the NF-ï«B and MAPK pathways and plays a role in IL-1R mediated inflammatory responses and innate immunity. IRAK-4-deficient animals are resistant to challenge with LPS and are impaired in their responses to viral and bacterial challenges.

Description Immunocytochemistry Validation of IRAK4 in K562 Cells
Immunocytochemical analysis of K562 cells using anti-IRAK4 antibody (56412) at 10 ug/ml. Cells was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 10% serum for 1 h at RT; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation with a citrate buffer (pH6). Samples were incubated with primary antibody overnight at 4 C. A goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) at 1/250 was used as secondary. Counter stained with Hematoxylin.

Description KO and KD Validation of IRAK4 in Mouse Bone Marrow-derived Macrophages (BMDM) (Koziczak-Holbro et al., 2008)
Western blot analysis with anti-IRAK4 antibodies was performed for IRAK4 in BMDM isolated from the mice. IRAK4 expression was not observed in the IRAK-4-/- cells and also reduced in IRAK4 mutant (IRAK-4 KD) when compared with WT.

Description Regulated Expression Validation of IRAK4 in Mouse RAW 264 Cells (Hatao et al., 2004)
RAW 264 cells were stimulated with (a) CSK4 and (b) CpG-DNA in the absence or presence of proteasome inhibitors (MG132 and Lactactstin). When detected with anti-IRAK4 antibodies (C12 from , Inc.), IRAK4 expression was found to be reduced without the inhibitors. The smaller protein band, a cleavage product of IRAK4, was present in the absence of both inhibitors.
