Gene: IRAK3

Alternate names for this Gene: ASRT5|IRAKM

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase protein family. Members of this family are essential components of the Toll/IL-R immune signal transduction pathways. This protein is primarily expressed in monocytes and macrophages and functions as a negative regulator of Toll-like receptor signaling. Mutations in this gene are associated with a susceptibility to asthma. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 12

Location in Chromosome : 12q14.3

Description of this Gene: interleukin 1 receptor associated kinase 3

Type of Gene: protein-coding
