RELA (v-rel avian reticuloendotheliosis viral oncogene homolog A) codes for the important constituent of the NF-κB (nuclear factor κ-B) complex. It is located on chromosome 11q13.1. It is also called as nuclear factor κ-B subunit 3 (NFKB3).
免疫原
Peptide sequence around aa. 274-278 (R-P-S-D-R), according to the protein RELA.
生物化学的/生理学的作用
RELA (v-rel avian reticuloendotheliosis viral oncogene homolog A) participates in NFKB signaling pathway. It also controls inflammation. Alterations in the gene results in schizophrenia and their startle reactions.

ターゲットの説明
NF-kappa-B is a pleiotropic transcription factor which is present in almost all cell types and is involved in many biological processed such as inflammation, immunity, differentiation, cell growth, tumorigenesis and apoptosis. NF-kappa-B is a homo- or heterodimeric complex formed by the Rel-like domain-containing proteins RELA/p65, RELB, NFKB1/p105, NFKB1/p50, REL and NFKB2/p52 and the heterodimeric p65-p50 complex appears to be most abundant one. The dimers bind at kappa-B sites in the DNA of their target genes and the individual dimers have distinct preferences for different kappa-B sites that they can bind with distinguishable affinity and specificity. Different dimer combinations act as transcriptional activators or repressors, respectively. NF-kappa-B is controlled by various mechanisms of post-translational modification and subcellular compartmentalization as well as by interactions with other cofactors or corepressors. NF-kappa-B complexes are held in the cytoplasm in an inactive state complexed with members of the NF-kappa-B inhibitor (I-kappa-B) family. In a conventional activation pathway, I-kappa-B is phosphorylated by I-kappa-B kinases (IKKs) in response to different activators, subsequently degraded thus liberating the active NF-kappa-B complex which translocates to the nucleus. NF-kappa-B heterodimeric p65-p50 and p65-c-Rel complexes are transcriptional activators. The NF-kappa-B p65-p65 complex appears to be involved in invasin-mediated activation of IL-8 expression. The inhibitory effect of I-kappa-B upon NF-kappa-B the cytoplasm is exerted primarily through the interaction with p65. p65 shows a weak DNA-binding site which could contribute directly to DNA binding in the NF-kappa-B complex.

Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are transposable elements that cause host genome instability and usually play deleterious roles in disease such as tumorigenesis. Recent advances also suggest that this "enemy within" may encode a viral mimic to induce antiviral immune responses through
