Biological function summary
TLR6 plays a role in pathogen recognition and activation of inflammatory responses. It often forms a functional heterodimer with TLR2 a necessity for its function. Through this complex TLR6 mediates the recognition of bacterial lipoproteins and triggers downstream signaling involved in immune cell activation and cytokine production. This signaling increases the host's immune response to bacterial infections by promoting the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Pathways
TLR6 initiates signaling cascades that are significant in the immune system such as the NF-kB and MAPK pathways. TLR6 partners with TLR2 to activate the MyD88-dependent signaling pathway an important pathway in innate immunity that affects transcription of pro-inflammatory genes. Interaction with these pathways involves proteins like MyD88 and TRAF6 which are central components in signal transduction leading to inflammation and antimicrobial responses.

General info
Function
Participates in the innate immune response to Gram-positive bacteria and fungi. Specifically recognizes diacylated and, to a lesser extent, triacylated lipopeptides (PubMed : 20037584). In response to diacylated lipopeptides, forms the activation cluster TLR2 : TLR6 : CD14 : CD36, this cluster triggers signaling from the cell surface and subsequently is targeted to the Golgi in a lipid-raft dependent pathway (PubMed : 16880211). Acts via MYD88 and TRAF6, leading to NF-kappa-B activation, cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response. 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 TLR2 (PubMed : 11441107). In complex with TLR4, promotes sterile inflammation in monocytes/macrophages in response to oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) or amyloid-beta 42. In this context, the initial signal is provided by oxLDL- or amyloid-beta 42-binding to CD36. This event induces the formation of a heterodimer of TLR4 and TLR6, which is rapidly internalized and triggers inflammatory response, leading to the NF-kappa-B-dependent production of CXCL1, CXCL2 and CCL9 cytokines, via MYD88 signaling pathway, and CCL5 cytokine, via TICAM1 signaling pathway, as well as IL1B secretion (PubMed : 11441107, PubMed : 20037584).
