IκB-α is an inhibitory protein that binds to the NF-κB complex and retains this complex in the cytoplasm where it cannot activate transcription. Upon cellular stimulation, the IκB proteins are phosphorylated and degraded via the ubiquitin pathway allowing for nuclear translocation of NF-κB. The NF-κB complex can then bind DNA to activate gene expression of multiple proteins involved in inflammation, cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis.

Antigen Details
- Structure
- 314 amino acids, with predicted molecular weight 35.1 kD. Inhibitory protein of the NF-κB complex that contains multiple ankyrin repeats.
- Distribution
-
Cytoplasm
- Function
- Regulates transcriptional activity of NF-κB by binding the complex and trapping it in the cytoplasm. Serine phosphorylation of IκB targets it for destruction via the ubiquitination pathway, which allows the NF-κB complex to translocate to the nucleus.
- Interaction
- Interacts with NFκB1, SUMO4, p53, ribosomal S6 kinase 1.
