ABSTRACT
Nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) is activated by various inflammatory and infectious molecules and is involved in immune responses. It has been elucidated that ADP-ß-D-manno-heptose (ADP-Hep), a metabolite in gram-negative bacteria, activates NF-κB through alpha-kinase 1 (ALPK1)-TIFA-TRAF6 signaling. ADP-Hep stimulates the kinase activity of ALPK1 for TIFA phosphorylation. Complex formation between phosphorylation-dependent TIFA oligomer and TRAF6 promotes the polyubiquitination of TRAF6 for NF-κB activation. TIFAB, a TIFA homolog lacking a phosphorylation site and a TRAF6 binding motif, is a negative regulator of TIFA-TRAF6 signaling and is implicated in myeloid diseases. TIFAB is indicated to regulate TIFA-TRAF6 signaling through interactions with TIFA and TRAF6; however, little is known about its biological function. We demonstrated that TIFAB forms a complex not with the TIFA dimer, an intrinsic form of TIFA involved in NF-κB activation, but with monomeric TIFA. The structural analysis of the TIFA/TIFAB complex and the biochemical and cell-based analyses showed that TIFAB forms a stable heterodimer with TIFA, inhibits TIFA dimer formation, and suppresses TIFA-TRAF6 signaling. The resultant TIFA/TIFAB complex is a "pseudo-TIFA dimer" lacking the phosphorylation site and TRAF6 binding motif in TIFAB and cannot form the orderly structure as proposed for the phosphorylated TIFA oligomer involved in NF-κB activation. This study elucidated the molecular and structural basis for the regulation of TIFA-TRAF6 signaling by TIFAB.
