NKIRAS1: Proteins and Enzymes

NF-kB is silenced in the cytoplasm by an inhibitory protein, IkB. Synthesis of IkBa is autoregulated. IkB proteins are phosphorylated by IkB kinase complex consisting of at least three proteins, IKK1/a, IKK2/b, and IKK3/g. External stimuli such as tumor necrosis factor or other cytokines results in phosphorylation and degradation of IkB releasing N...
