Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4, also called REN64, is an IRAK family protein kinase involved in signaling innate immune responses from Toll-like receptors. It also supports signaling from T-cell receptors. Scott(2002) mapped the gene to chromosome 12 based on similarity between the REN64 sequence(GenBank AF155118) and a chromosome 12 clone(GenBank AC093012). Functional analysis by Li et al.(2002) determined that IRAK4, like IRAK1 and Pelle, has auto- and cross-phosphorylation kinase activity. Precipitation and binding analyses showed weak interaction between IRAK4 and IRAK1, but IRAK4 did not interact with other IRAK family members. Overexpressed protein interacted with MYD88 and TRAF6 and activated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor kappa-B (NFKB) pathways.
