" /> Toll-like receptor 4 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Toll-like receptor 4;

Symbol : TLR4;

CISMeF acronym : TLR4;

Type : Gene;

Alternative titles and symbols : Toll, drosophila, homolog of; TOLL;

Description : In Drosophila, the Toll transmembrane receptor plays a central role in the signaling pathways that control dorsal-ventral axis formation and the innate nonspecific immune response. TLR4, the human homolog of Drosophila Toll, is a type I transmembrane protein with an extracellular domain consisting of a leucine-rich repeat region and an intracellular domain homologous to that of human interleukin-1 receptor (IL1R; 147810). Signaling through TLR4 and Toll parallels the signaling pathway induced by IL1R in mammalian cells in that both signal through the NF-kappa-B (see 164011) pathway (summary by Medzhitov et al., 1997).;
