The crystal structures of the Brucella protein TcpB and the TLR adaptor protein TIRAP show structural differences in microbial TIR mimicry

Function

[TIRAP_HUMAN] Adapter involved in TLR2 and TLR4 signaling pathways in the innate immune response. Acts via IRAK2 and TRAF-6, leading to the activation of NF-kappa-B, MAPK1, MAPK3 and JNK, and resulting in cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response. Positively regulates the production of TNF-alpha and interleukin-6.^{[1] [2]}
