Mechanisms by which IκB proteins control NF-κB activity

Abstract: The biological activity of the transcription factor NF-B is differentially controlled by three IB proteins, IB␣, IB␤, and IB. We have examined the molecular basis for the differential inhibitory strengths of IB proteins by constructing hybrid IBs and found that the first ankyrin repeat of IB␣ is responsible for its strong inhibitory effect. Swapping a putative ␤-turn within the first ankyrin repeat between the strong IB␣ and the weak IB␤ inhibitors switches their in vivo inhibitory activity on NF-B. The qualit… Show more

“…Thus, it is possible that vesnarinone inhibited I B␣ phosphorylation by inhibiting the activity of MEKK1. TNF-induced NF-B activation involves the sequential interaction of TNF receptor with TRADD, TRAF2, and NIK, which then activates IKK (48,49). Our findings that vesnarinone blocks NF-B-dependent reporter gene expression induced by TNFR1, TRAF2, and NIK, but not by p65, also suggests that vesnarinone acts at a step downstream from NIK.…”

“…TNF-induced NF-B activation is mediated through sequential interaction of the TNF receptor with TNF receptor associated death domain (TRADD), TRAF2, NIK, and IKK-␤, resulting in phosphorylation of I B␣ (48,49). To delineate the site of action of vesnarinone in the TNF-signaling pathway leading to NF-B activation, cells were transfected with TRAF2, NIK, and p65 plasmids, and then NF-B-dependent SEAP expression was monitored in untreated and vesnarinone-treated cells.…”

“…We next investigated where TQ acts in the sequence of TNFR1, TRADD, TRAF2, NIK, TAK1/TAB1, and IKK-h recruitment that characterizes TNF-induced NF-nB activation (42). In cells transfected with TNFR1, TRADD, TRAF2, NIK, TAK1/TAB1, IKK-h, and p65 plasmids, NF-nB -dependent secretory alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) expression was induced; TQ substantially suppressed NF-nB -dependent SEAP expression in all cases (Fig.…”

“…We investigated where simvastatin acts in the sequence of TNFR1, TRADD, TRAF2, NF-B-inducing kinase (NIK), and IKK recruitment that characterizes TNF-␣-induced NF-B activation (47,48). In cells transfected with TNFR1, TRADD, TRAF2, NIK, IKK␤, and p65 plasmids, NF-B-dependent SEAP expression was induced; simvastatin substantially suppressed NF-B-dependent SEAP expression in all cells except those transfected with p65 (Fig.…”
