Background
This gene encodes a member of the interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase protein family. Members of this family are essential components of the Toll/IL-R immune signal transduction pathways. This protein is primarily expressed in monocytes and macrophages and functions as a negative regulator of Toll-like receptor signaling. Mutations in this gene are associated with a susceptibility to asthma. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010],catalytic activity:ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.,caution:Ser-293 is present instead of the conserved Asp which is expected to be an active site residue. Low level autophosphorylation activity has been reported in PubMed:10383454, while other authors describe this as an inactive kinase.,cofactor:Magnesium.,disease:Defects in IRAK3 are associated with susceptibility to asthma-related traits type 5 (ASRT5) [MIM:611064]. Asthma-related traits include clinical symptoms of asthma, such as coughing, wheezing, dyspnea, bronchial hyperresponsiveness as assessed by methacholine challenge test, serum IgE levels, atopy, and atopic dermatitis.,function:Inhibits dissociation of IRAK1 and IRAK4 from the Toll-like receptor signaling complex by either inhibiting the phosphorylation of IRAK1 and IRAK4 or stabilizing the receptor complex.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family. Pelle subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 death domain.,similarity:Contains 1 protein kinase domain.,tissue specificity:Expressed predominantly in peripheral blood lymphocytes.,
