Biochemistry 431 > (NF-KB) multi-step cascade) > Flashcards
Process
1) Cytokine binds to receptor on membrane (Normally NF-KB is bound to I-KB) in the cytoplasm 2) Receptor causes phosphorylation of I-KB through IKB kinase 3 ) I-KB ubiquinated and degraded 4) NF-KB NLS exposed and migrates to nucleus
IKB
prevents NF-KB from migrating to the nucleus
