Overlay histogram showing HeLa cells stained with ab108991 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab108991 1/100 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) (ab150077) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (monoclonal) (1μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >5000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter.

Supplementary information

TRAF4 also known as Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor-Associated Factor 4 is a scaffold protein with a molecular weight of approximately 55 kDa. TRAF4 interacts with a variety of intracellular signaling molecules influencing signal transduction. It is expressed prominently in epithelial cells and the respiratory tract reflecting its involvement in tissue homeostasis and cell communication. The protein contains a conserved RING finger domain a novel zinc finger TRAF-type domain and a coiled-coil region which are essential for its function in protein-protein interactions.
Biological function summary

TRAF4 participates in the regulation of immune responses and development of epithelial tissues. This protein modulates signaling pathways by promoting or inhibiting the activation of transcription factors including NF-κB and AP-1 which are critical for the immune system's function. TRAF4 associates with various adapter proteins forming signaling complexes that influence cellular outcomes during immune responses. It also plays a role in the development and integrity of the respiratory epithelium highlighting its importance in maintaining epithelial barrier functions.

Pathways

TRAF4 integrates into the TNF receptor signaling pathway and the TGF-beta signaling pathway. In the TNF receptor pathway TRAF4 interacts with other TRAF family members mediating responses to inflammatory cytokines and regulating apoptosis. Within the TGF-beta pathway TRAF4 modulates signal transduction involving Smad proteins impacting cellular growth and differentiation. The protein's role within these pathways highlights its capacity to influence both immune responses and tissue homeostasis.

TRAF4 has associations with cancer progression and chronic inflammatory diseases. Altered expression levels of TRAF4 can contribute to tumorigenesis by affecting cell survival and proliferation involving interaction with proteins like NF-κB and TGF-beta receptors. In chronic inflammatory diseases TRAF4's dysregulation can exacerbate inflammation through pathways that involve interactions with cytokines and other TRAF family proteins. TRAF4 represents a potential target for therapeutic intervention aiming to modulate immune responses and ameliorate disease symptoms.

Target data

Adapter protein with E3 ligase activity that is involved in many diverse biological processes including cell proliferation, migration, differentiation, DNA repair, platelet activation or apoptosis (PubMed : 30352854, PubMed : 31076633, PubMed : 32268273, PubMed : 33991522). Promotes EGFR-mediated signaling by facilitating the dimerization of EGFR and downstream AKT activation thereby promoting cell proliferation (PubMed : 30352854). Ubiquitinates SMURF2 through 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitin chain leading to SMURF2 degradation through the proteasome and subsequently osteogenic differentiation (PubMed : 31076633). Promotes 'Lys-63'-mediated ubiquitination of CHK1 which in turn activates cell cycle arrest and activation of DNA repair (PubMed : 32357935). In addition, promotes an atypical 'Lys-29'-linked ubiquitination at the C-terminal end of IRS1 which is crucial for insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signal transduction (PubMed : 33991522). Regulates activation of NF-kappa-B in response to signaling through Toll-like receptors. Required for normal skeleton development, and for normal development of the respiratory tract (By similarity). Required for activation of RPS6KB1 in response to TNF signaling. Modulates TRAF6 functions. Inhibits adipogenic differentiation by activating pyruvate kinase PKM activity and subsequently the beta-catenin signaling pathway (PubMed : 32268273).
