Systematic analysis of the IL-17 receptor signalosome reveals a robust regulatory feedback loop.

ABSTRACT: IL-17 mediates immune protection from fungi and bacteria, as well as it promotes autoimmune pathologies. However, the regulation of the signal transduction from the IL-17 receptor (IL-17R) remained elusive. We developed a novel mass spectrometry-based approach to identify components of the IL-17R complex followed by analysis of their roles using reverse genetics. Besides the identification of linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC) as an important signal transducing component of IL-17R, we established that IL-17 signaling is regulated by a robust negative feedback loop mediated by TBK1 and IKKε. These kinases terminate IL-17 signaling by phosphorylating the adaptor ACT1 leading to the release of the essential ubiquitin ligase TRAF6 from the complex. NEMO recruits both kinases to th
