Activity summary

The NAK/TBK1 also known by its alternate names IKKi or IKKε is a serine/threonine kinase enzyme with a molecular mass of about 84 kDa. This protein is highly expressed in tissues including the spleen thymus and pancreas. It functions mechanically by phosphorylating target substrates which modifies their activity and impacts downstream signaling processes. TBK1 and IKKε share a similar structure and therefore can perform overlapping roles in cell signaling reflecting their critical importance in maintaining cellular responses.

Biological function summary

This kinase plays a role in the innate immune response and acts as an important regulator for synthesizing type I interferons. TBK1 and IKKε are part of a larger complex that includes other kinases such as TRAF3 and TRAF6 which activate transcription factors like IRF3 and NF-κB. Through this regulation TBK1 and IKKε enzymes execute functions necessary for antiviral defense and inflammation impacting cell proliferation and survival.

Pathways

TBK1 and IKKε are integral to the Toll-like receptor (TLR) and RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) signaling pathways. These pathways drive the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and type I interferons orchestrating a robust antiviral response. TBK1 collaborates with proteins such as IRF3 and IRF7 to propagate signals that help in counteracting viral replication. Its role in these pathways enhances the body's ability to recognize and respond to pathogenic threats.

Associated diseases and disorders

TBK1 and IKKε are linked to conditions such as cancer and inflammatory diseases. Dysregulation of TBK1 activity often associates with heightened inflammation and malignancies including lung adenocarcinomas. Co-factors like TRAF3 can regulate TBK1-related signaling in pathological conditions influencing cell survival and immune evasion in tumors. The understanding of TBK1 and IKKε in these contexts highlights their importance as potential targets for therapeutic intervention.
