Biological function summary
TLR2 initiates signaling pathways that lead to the production of cytokines and chemokines helping to control infection. It forms dimers with other TLRs like TLR1 or TLR6 to expand its recognition range of microbial components. TLR2's activity is important for balancing pathogen recognition and avoiding overactive immune response. On macrophages TLR2 activation enhances their phagocytic ability.
Pathways
TLR2 plays roles in innate immune signaling pathways and inflammation pathways. It contributes significantly to the NF-kB and MAPK pathways which regulate inflammation and immune response. TLR2 often cooperates with proteins like MyD88 and TRAF6 in these pathways leading to downstream activation of transcription factors and production of pro-inflammatory molecules.

General info
Function
Cooperates with LY96 to mediate the innate immune response to bacterial lipoproteins and other microbial cell wall components. Cooperates with TLR1 or TLR6 to mediate the innate immune response to bacterial lipoproteins or lipopeptides (PubMed : 17889651, PubMed : 21078852). Acts via MYD88 and TRAF6, leading to NF-kappa-B activation, cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response. May also activate immune cells and promote apoptosis in response to the lipid moiety of lipoproteins (PubMed : 10426995, PubMed : 10426996). Recognizes mycoplasmal macrophage-activating lipopeptide-2kD (MALP-2), soluble tuberculosis factor (STF), phenol-soluble modulin (PSM) and B.burgdorferi outer surface protein A lipoprotein (OspA-L) cooperatively with TLR6 (PubMed : 11441107). Stimulation of monocytes in vitro with M.tuberculosis PstS1 induces p38 MAPK and ERK1/2 activation primarily via this receptor, but also partially via TLR4 (PubMed : 16622205). MAPK activation in response to bacterial peptidoglycan also occurs via this receptor (PubMed : 16622205). Acts as a receptor for M.tuberculosis lipoproteins LprA, LprG, LpqH and PstS1, some lipoproteins are dependent on other coreceptors (TLR1, CD14 and/or CD36); the lipoproteins act as agonists to modulate antigen presenting cell functions in response to the pathogen (PubMed : 19362712). M.tuberculosis HSP70 (dnaK) but not HSP65 (groEL-2) acts via this protein to stimulate NF-kappa-B expression (PubMed : 15809303). Recognizes M.tuberculosis major T-antigen EsxA (ESAT-6) which inhibits downstream MYD88-dependent signaling (shown in mouse) (By similarity). Forms activation clusters composed of several receptors depending on the ligand, these clusters trigger signaling from the cell surface and subsequently are targeted to the Golgi in a lipid-raft dependent pathway. Forms the cluster TLR2 : TLR6 : CD14 : CD36 in response to diacylated lipopeptides and TLR2 : TLR1 : CD14 in response to triacylated lipopeptides (PubMed : 16880211). Required for normal uptake of M.tuberculosis, a process that is inhibited by M.tuberculosis LppM (By similarity).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the Toll-like receptor family.
Post-translational modifications
Glycosylation of Asn-442 is critical for secretion of the N-terminal ectodomain of TLR2.. Ubiquitinated at Lys-754 by PPP1R11, leading to its degradation (PubMed:27805901). Deubiquitinated by USP2 (By similarity).
