Preferred Label : IRAK2 wt Allele;
NCIt synonyms : Interleukin-1 Receptor-Associated Kinase 2 wt Allele; IRAK-2;
NCIt definition : Human IRAK2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 3p25.3 and is approximately
74 kb in length. This allele, which encodes interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-like
2 protein, plays a role both in interleukin-1-induced up-regulation of the transcription
factor NF-kappa B and in regulation of responsiveness to bacterial endotoxins.;
NCIt note : IRAK2 gene expression is regulated by binding of the transcription factor chromatin
insulator protein (CTCF) to a high-affinity binding site in the promoter region of
this gene. The IRAK2 gene is expressed in the kidneys, liver, lungs, pancreas, peripheral
leukocytes, prostate gland, spleen, thymus, and skeletal muscle.;
