Target
Full Name
TRAF6 Gene(Protein Coding) TNF Receptor Associated Factor 6
Introduction
Traf6 is a member of the TNF receptor associated factor (TRAF) family of adaptor proteins that mediate signaling events from members of the TNF receptor and Toll/IL-1 receptor families to activate transcription factors such as NF-kappa-B and AP-1. Traf6 is essential for perinatal and postnatal survival. Mice deficient in Traf6 exhibit osteopetrosis and defective in development of epidermal appendixes, normal B cell differentiation, lymph node organogenesis, interleukin-1 signaling, lipopolysaccharide signaling and neural tube closure. Traf6 possesses ubiquitin ligase activity.
Alternative Names

Function
E3 ubiquitin ligase that, together with UBE2N and UBE2V1, mediates the synthesis of 'Lys-63'-linked-polyubiquitin chains conjugated to proteins, such as IKBKG, IRAK1, AKT1 and AKT2 (PubMed:11057907, PubMed:18347055, PubMed:19713527, PubMed:19465916).
Also mediates ubiquitination of free/unanchored polyubiquitin chain that leads to MAP3K7 activation (PubMed:19675569).
Leads to the activation of NF-kappa-B and JUN (PubMed:16378096, PubMed:17135271).
Seems to also play a role in dendritic cells (DCs) maturation and/or activation (By similarity).
Represses c-Myb-mediated transactivation, in B-lymphocytes (PubMed:18093978, PubMed:18758450).
Adapter protein that seems to play a role in signal transduction initiated via TNF receptor, IL-1 receptor and IL-17 receptor (PubMed:8837778, PubMed:19825828, PubMed:12140561).
Regulates osteoclast differentiation by mediating the activation of adapter protein complex 1 (AP-1) and NF-kappa-B, in response to RANK-L stimulation (By similarity).
Together with MAP3K8, mediates CD40 signals that activate ERK in B-cells and macrophages, and thus may play a role in the regulation of immunoglobulin production (By similarity).
Participates also in the TCR signaling by ubiquitinating LAT (PubMed:25907557, PubMed:23514740).

Cellular Location
Cytoplasm
Cytoplasm, cell cortex
Nucleus
Lipid droplet
Found in the nuclei of some aggressive B-cell lymphoma cell lines as well as in the nuclei of both resting and activated T- and B-lymphocytes. Found in punctate nuclear body protein complexes. Ubiquitination may occur in the cytoplasm and sumoylation in the nucleus. RSAD2/viperin recruits it to the lipid droplet (By similarity).
PTM
Sumoylated on Lys-124, Lys-142 and Lys-453 with SUMO1.
Polyubiquitinated on Lys-124 by TRAF3IP2; after cell stimulation with IL17A (PubMed:19825828).
Polyubiquitinated on Lys-124; after cell stimulation with IL1B or TGFB. This ligand-induced cell stimulation leads to dimerization/oligomerization of TRAF6 molecules, followed by auto-ubiquitination which involves UBE2N and UBE2V1 and leads to TRAF6 activation. This 'Lys-63' site-specific poly-ubiquitination appears to be associated with the activation of signaling molecules. Endogenous autoubiquitination occurs only for the cytoplasmic form. Deubiquitinated by USP10 in a TANK-dependent manner, leading to the negative regulation of NF-kappaB signaling upon DNA damage (PubMed:25861989).
LRRC19 induces 'Lys-63' ubiquitination (PubMed:25026888).
