Function

Pattern recognition receptor (PRR) located on the cell surface that participates in the activation of innate immunity and inflammatory response (PubMed:11323673, PubMed:18490781). Recognizes small molecular motifs named pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMPs) expressed by pathogens and microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) usually expressed by resident microbiota (PubMed:29934223). Upon ligand binding such as bacterial flagellins, recruits intracellular adapter proteins MYD88 and TRIF leading to NF-kappa-B activation, cytokine secretion and induction of the inflammatory response (PubMed:11489966, PubMed:20855887). Plays thereby an important role in the relationship between the intestinal epithelium and enteric microbes and contributes to the gut microbiota composition throughout life (By similarity).

Activity summary

Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) also known as CD285 is a protein that functions mechanically as a pattern recognition receptor. It has a mass of about 98 kDa and is expressed mainly in the tissues of the lung intestine and urogenital tract. TLR5 recognizes pathogen-associated molecular patterns specifically identifying and binding to flagellin a protein component of bacterial flagella. This engagement initiates a signaling cascade that results in an immune response.

Biological function summary

This receptor plays a central role in the innate immune system. TLR5 is part of a complex network of receptors that detect microbial infections and activate immune defense. When TLR5 binds to flagellin it triggers the production of inflammatory cytokines and activation of adaptive immune responses. This interaction helps in mobilizing immune cells to the site of infection providing the body with a robust defense mechanism against bacterial pathogens.

Pathways

TLR5 activation is an important component of the NF-kB signaling and MAPK pathways. These pathways lead to the transcription of genes involved in inflammation and immune response. TLR5 interacts with MyD88 an adaptor protein to facilitate the downstream signaling cascade. This involvement links TLR5 to not only NF-kB pathway but also connects it to other Toll-like receptors further integrating the immune signaling network.

Associated diseases and disorders

TLR5 has been connected to inflammatory bowel disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Abnormal TLR5 signaling can lead to excessive inflammation contributing to these conditions. In COPD TLR5 and its associated cytokines can exacerbate lung inflammation while in inflammatory bowel disease dysregulation may trigger improper intestinal immune responses. Research into TLR5's role in these diseases can illuminate potential therapeutic targets.
