Abstract

NF-κB is activated by various stimuli including inflammatory cytokines and stresses. A key step in the activation of NF-κB is the phosphorylation of its inhibitors, IκBs, by an IκB kinase (IKK) complex. Recently, two closely related kinases, designated IKKα and IKKβ, have been identified to be the components of the IKK complex that phosphorylate critical serine residues of IκBs for degradation. A previously identified NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK), which mediates NF-κB activation by TNFα and IL-1, has been demonstrated to activate IKKα. Previous studies showed that mitogen-activated protein kinase/ERK kinase kinase-1 (MEKK1), which constitutes the c-Jun N-terminal kinase/stress-activated protein kinase pathway, also activates NF-κB by an undefined mechanism. Here, we show that overexpression of MEKK1 preferentially stimulates the kinase activity of IKKβ, which resulted in phosphorylation of IκBs. Moreover, a catalytically inactive mutant of IKKβ blocked the MEKK1-induced NF-κB activation. By contrast, overexpression of NIK stimulates kinase activities of both IKKα and IKKβ comparably, suggesting a qualitative difference between NIK- and MEKK1-mediated NF-κB activation pathways. Collectively, these results indicate that NIK and MEKK1 independently activate the IKK complex and that the kinase activities of IKKα and IKKβ are differentially regulated by two upstream kinases, NIK and MEKK1, which are responsive to distinct stimuli.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
