NF-kappa-B inhibitor alpha

UniProtKB accession:  P25963

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Inhibits the activity of dimeric NF-kappa-B/REL complexes by trapping REL (RELA/p65 and NFKB1/p50) dimers in the cytoplasm by masking their nuclear localization signals (PubMed:1493333, PubMed:7479976, PubMed:36651806). On cellular stimulation by immune and pro-inflammatory responses, becomes phosphorylated promoting ubiquitination and degradation, enabling the dimeric RELA to translocate to the nucleus and activate transcription (PubMed:7796813, PubMed:7628694, PubMed:7878466, PubMed:7479976).
