Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) is a ubiquitous transcription factor and an essential mediator of gene expression during activation of immune and inflammatory responses.
NF-kB mediates the expression of a great variety of genes in response to extracellular stimuli.
NF-kB associates with IkB proteins in the cell cytoplasm, which inhibit NF-kB activity.
IkB is phosphorylated by IkB kinase (IKK) complex that contains IKKa, IKKb, and IKKg.
A novel molecule that associates with and activates IKK was recently identified and designated CIKS (for connection to IKK and SAPK/JNK) and Act1 (for NF-kB activator 1).
CIKS directly interacts with IKKg.
CIKS/Act1 also activates activating transcription factor (ATF) and activator protein 1 (AP-1) through Jun kinase (JNK).
These results indicate that CIKS/Act1 is involved in the inflammation and stress responses.
CIKS/Act1 is ubiquitously expressed in human tissues.
