DESCRIPTION

Also known as TAB2_HUMAN, TAB2, KIAA0733, MAP3K7IP2. Adapter required to activate the JNK and NF-kappa-B signaling pathways through the specific recognition of 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains by its RanBP2-type zinc finger (NZF) (PubMed:10882101, PubMed:11460167, PubMed:15327770, PubMed:22158122). Acts as an adapter linking MAP3K7/TAK1 and TRAF6 to 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains (PubMed:10882101, PubMed:11460167, PubMed:15327770, PubMed:22158122). The RanBP2-type zinc finger (NZF) specifically recognizes Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains unanchored or anchored to the substrate proteins such as RIPK1/RIP1: this acts as a scaffold to organize a large signaling complex to promote autophosphorylation of MAP3K7/TAK1, and subsequent activation of I-kappa-B-kinase (IKK) core complex by MAP3K7/TAK1 (PubMed:15327770, PubMed:22158122). Regulates the IL1-mediated translocation of NCOR1 out of the nucleus (By similarity). Involved in heart development (PubMed:20493459). Interacts with MAP3K7 and TRAF6 (PubMed:10882101). Identified in the TRIKA2 complex composed of MAP3K7, TAB1 and TAB2 (PubMed:11460167). Binds 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains (PubMed:19675569, PubMed:19935683). Interacts with NCOR1 and HDAC3 to form a ternary complex (By similarity). Interacts (via C-terminal) with NUMBL (via PTB domain) (PubMed:18299187). Interacts (via the C-terminus) with DYNC2I2 (via WD domains) (PubMed:19521662). Interacts with RBCK1 (PubMed:17449468). Interacts with TRIM5 (PubMed:21512573).
