Function

Regulates activation of NF-kappa-B and JNK and plays a central role in the regulation of cell survival and apoptosis (PubMed:22212761). Required for normal antibody isotype switching from IgM to IgG. Has E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity and promotes 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination of target proteins, such as BIRC3, RIPK1 and TICAM1. Is an essential constituent of several E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes, where it promotes the ubiquitination of target proteins by bringing them into contact with other E3 ubiquitin ligases. Regulates BIRC2 and BIRC3 protein levels by inhibiting their autoubiquitination and subsequent degradation; this does not depend on the TRAF2 RING-type zinc finger domain. Plays a role in mediating activation of NF-kappa-B by EIF2AK2/PKR. In complex with BIRC2 or BIRC3, promotes ubiquitination of IKBKE.

Activity summary

TRAF2 known also as TNF Receptor-Associated Factor 2 is an adapter protein weighing approximately 56 kDa. It is expressed in many tissues such as lymph nodes spleen and thymus. This protein acts as a signal transducer playing an integral role in the activation of NF-kB and MAPK signaling pathways. TRAF2 interacts with TNF receptors and other proteins using its RING finger and zinc finger domains for ubiquitination processes.

Biological function summary

TRAF2 modulates immune responses by regulating cell survival proliferation and apoptosis. It often forms complexes with other TRAF family proteins to mediate signal transmission. These complexes control the balance between pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic signals impacting the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses. Its interactions are necessary for the proper function of NF-kB ensuring balanced immune activities.

Pathways

TRAF2 is a critical component within both NF-kB and JNK signaling pathways. In the NF-kB pathway TRAF2 intersects with proteins like IKK and NEMO facilitating the transcription of genes involved in immune and inflammatory responses. In JNK signaling TRAF2 influences cellular responses through regulation of apoptotic signals. By linking these pathways TRAF2 ensures a coordinated cellular response to extracellular stimuli.

Associated diseases and disorders

TRAF2’s dysregulation is linked with autoimmune diseases and certain types of cancer. Overactivity can contribute to chronic inflammation highlighting its role in autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis. In cancer TRAF2’s involvement with TNF receptors can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation. Proteins like cIAP1 and cIAP2 are often related to TRAF2 in these contexts influencing the progression and modulation of disease states.

    ab198971 staining TRAF2 in HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab198971 at 1/500 dilution (shown in green) and Alexa Fluor® 594 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker ab195889, Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 594), at 2μg/ml (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).
    Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).
