Normal function

This gene encodes a kinase that activates NF-kappaB in both the Toll-like receptor (TLR) and T-cell receptor (TCR) signalling pathways. The protein is essential for most innate immune responses.

Dysfunction and disease

Biallelic mutations in the gene cause Invasive pneumococcal disease, recurrent isolated, 1 [MIM:610799] and IRAK4 deficiency [MIM:607676]. Disorders characterized by recurrent infections with pyogenic bacteria and recurrent invasive pneumococcal disease. [Load More]
