Function

Serine/threonine kinase which acts as an essential component of the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway (PubMed:10094049, PubMed:11460167, PubMed:12589052, PubMed:16845370, PubMed:16893890, PubMed:21512573, PubMed:8663074, PubMed:9079627). Plays an important role in the cascades of cellular responses evoked by changes in the environment (PubMed:10094049, PubMed:11460167, PubMed:12589052, PubMed:16845370, PubMed:16893890, PubMed:21512573, PubMed:8663074, PubMed:9079627). Mediates signal transduction of TRAF6, various cytokines including interleukin-1 (IL-1), transforming growth factor-beta (TGFB), TGFB-related factors like BMP2 and BMP4, toll-like receptors (TLR), tumor necrosis factor receptor CD40 and B-cell receptor (BCR) (PubMed:16893890, PubMed:9079627). Once activated, acts as an upstream activator of the MKK/JNK signal transduction cascade and the p38 MAPK signal transduction cascade through the phosphorylation and activation of several MAP kinase kinases like MAP2K1/MEK1, MAP2K3/MKK3, MAP2K6/MKK6 and MAP2K7/MKK7 (PubMed:11460167, PubMed:8663074). These MAP2Ks in turn activate p38 MAPKs and c-jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs); both p38 MAPK and JNK pathways control the transcription factors activator protein-1 (AP-1) (PubMed:11460167, PubMed:12589052, PubMed:8663074). Independently of MAP2Ks and p38 MAPKs, acts as a key activator of NF-kappa-B by promoting activation of the I-kappa-B-kinase (IKK) core complex (PubMed:12589052, PubMed:8663074). Mechanistically, recruited to polyubiquitin chains of RIPK2 and IKBKG/NEMO via TAB2/MAP3K7IP2 and TAB3/MAP3K7IP3, and catalyzes phosphorylation and activation of IKBKB/IKKB component of the IKK complex, leading to NF-kappa-B activation (PubMed:10094049, PubMed:11460167). In osmotic stress signaling, plays a major role in the activation of MAPK8/JNK1, but not that of NF-kappa-B (PubMed:16893890). Promotes TRIM5 capsid-specific restriction activity (PubMed:21512573). Phosphorylates RIPK1 at 'Ser-321' which positively regulates RIPK1 interaction with RIPK3 to promote necroptosis but negatively regulates RIPK1 kinase activity and its interaction with FADD to mediate apoptosis (By similarity). Phosphorylates STING1 in response to cGAMP-activation, promoting association between STEEP1 and STING1 and STING1 translocation to COPII vesicles (PubMed:37832545).

Activity summary

TAK1 also known as MAP3K7 (Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 7) is an important protein kinase that weighs approximately 63 kDa. This protein is expressed in various tissues and cells including HEK 293T cells. TAK1 plays a mechanical role as a part of the MAPK signaling cascade. It phosphorylates and activates downstream kinases which is key to transmitting cellular signals that regulate responses to external stimuli like cytokines and stress.

Biological function summary

TAK1 is involved in several cellular processes necessary for maintaining balance and responding to stress. TAK1 forms a complex with proteins like TAB1 TAB2 and TAB3 which are important for its activation and signaling function. This complex facilitates TAK1's involvement in inflammation and immune response indicating its significance in mediating cellular survival and apoptosis.

Pathways

TAK1 operates within the NF-κB and MAPK pathways two critical routes for cellular response to inflammation and stress. In the NF-κB pathway TAK1 activates IKK which triggers the degradation of IκB freeing NF-κB to move into the nucleus and activate transcription. In the MAPK pathway TAK1 directly influences JNK and p38 cascades revealing regulatory connections to proteins like MEK and ERK.

Associated diseases and disorders

TAK1 has been linked to conditions such as cancer and inflammatory diseases. In cancers aberrant TAK1 activity can lead to enhanced cell proliferation and survival. Moreover inflammation-related disorders can arise from malfunctioning TAK1 signaling demonstrating its connection to proteins like TNF receptor-associated factors which are involved in inflammatory responses. Understanding TAK1's role in these disorders may pave the way for developing potential therapeutic interventions.
