Canonical
Non-canonical
Atypical
IKK independent
What does the canonical pathway work downstream of?
Myd88
How does the IKK complex activate NF-kappaB?
It phosphorylates IkappaB which is bound to NF-kappaB dimer in the cytoplasm -> NF-kappaB moves to the nucleus and promotes transcription
How is IkappaBalpha targeted for degradation?
It is phosphorylated on two serine residues on the D-S-G-X-X-S motif -> recognised by F-box protein b-TcRP -> recruitment of SCF complex -> IkappaBalpha ubiquitylation on K21 and K22

Prevents degradation of IkappaBalpha

IkappaB to undergo proteasomal degradation
How do TLRs and IL-1Rs induce MAPK signalling?
Instead of using Raf, they use Tpl2
In unstimulated cells, what does Tpl2 exist as?
An inactive complex with Abin2 and p105
How does IL-1Rs induce Tpl2 activation?
Tak1 phosphorylates and activates IKKbeta -> phosphorylates p105 -> promotes K48 linked polyUb to p105 -> targeted for degradation -> Tpl2/Abin1/p105 complex dissociates -> Tpl2 is released -> ERK1/2 activation
Why does Tpl2 exist as an inactive complex?
It stabilises it and maintains its expression in the cell

Prevents ERK1/2 activation since Tpl2 is destabilised and not present in the cells
