Phospho-NFKBIA (S32) Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

P25963

Target Species

Human

Target Name

NFKBIA

Target Full Name

NF-kappa-B inhibitor alpha

Target Function

Inhibits the activity of dimeric NF-kappa-B/REL complexes by trapping REL dimers in the cytoplasm through masking of their nuclear localization signals. On cellular stimulation by immune and proinflammatory responses, becomes phosphorylated promoting ubiquitination and degradation, enabling the dimeric RELA to translocate to the nucleus and activate transcription.

Target Involvement

Ectodermal dysplasia, anhidrotic, with T-cell immunodeficiency autosomal dominant (ADEDAID)

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm. Nucleus.

Target Protein Families

NF-kappa-B inhibitor family

Target Synonyms

I kappa B alpha; I-kappa-B-alpha; IkappaBalpha; IkB-alpha; IKBA; IKBA_HUMAN; IKBalpha; MAD 3; MAD3; Major histocompatibility complex enhancer-binding protein MAD3; NF kappa B inhibitor alpha; NF-kappa-B inhibitor alpha; NFKBI; NFKBIA; Nuclear factor of kappa light chain gene enhancer in B cells; Nuclear factor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B cells inhibitor alpha

Target Background

This gene encodes a member of the NF-kappa-B inhibitor family, which contain multiple ankrin repeat domains. The encoded protein interacts with REL dimers to inhibit NF-kappa-B/REL complexes which are involved in inflammatory responses. The encoded protein moves between the cytoplasm and the nucleus via a nuclear localization signal and CRM1-mediated nuclear export. Mutations in this gene have been found in ectodermal dysplasia anhidrotic with T-cell immunodeficiency autosomal dominant disease.
