TIRAP-mediated activation of p38 MAPK in inflammatory signaling.

ABSTRACT: The role of TIRAP (toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain-containing adapter protein) in macrophage inflammatory signalling has been significantly evolved since its discovery in 2001 due to its dynamic nature and subcellular localization to regulate multiple signaling through several protein-protein interactions (PPIs). Structural analysis of these interactions can reveal a better understanding of their conformational dynamics and the nature of their binding. Tyrosine phosphorylation in the TIR domain of TIRAP is very critical for its function. In toll-like receptor (TLR) 4/2 signalling, Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) and Protein kinase C delta (PKCδ) are known to phosphorylate the Y86, Y106, Y159, and Y187 of TIRAP which is crucial for the downstream function of MAPKs (mitogen-activated
