Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Nuclear factor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells inhibitor, epsilon , also known as NFKBIE , is a protein which in humans is encoded by the NFKBIE gene .[ 5] [ 6]
NFKBIE protein expression is up-regulated following NF-κB activation and during myelopoiesis . NFKBIE is able to inhibit NF-κB-directed transactivation via cytoplasmic retention of REL proteins.[ 6]
NFKB1 or NFKB2 is bound to REL , RELA , or RELB to form the NF-κB transcription factor complex. The NF-κB complex is inhibited by I-kappa-B proteins (NFKBIA or NFKBIB ), which inactivate NF-kappa-B by trapping it in the cytoplasm . Phosphorylation of serine residues on the I-kappa-B proteins by kinases (IKBKA , or IKBKB ) marks them for destruction via the ubiquitination pathway, thereby allowing activation of the NF-kappa-B complex. Activated NF-κB complex translocates into the nucleus and binds DNA at kappa-B-binding motifs such as 5-prime GGGRNNYYCC 3-prime or 5-prime HGGARNYYCC 3-prime (where H is A, C, or T; R is an A or G purine; and Y is a C or T pyrimidine). For some genes, activation requires NF-κB interaction with other transcription factors, such as STAT (see STAT6 ), AP-1 (JUN ), and NFAT (see NFATC1 ).[ 5]
NFKBIE has been shown to interact with NFKB2 ,[ 7] RELA ,[ 7] NFKB1 [ 7] and REL .[ 7] [ 8] [ 9]
