Myeloid differentiation primary response protein MyD88 (MYD88)

Adapter protein involved in the Toll-like receptor and IL-1 receptor signaling pathway in the innate immune response (PubMed:15361868, PubMed:18292575). Acts via IRAK1, IRAK2, IRF7 and TRAF6, leading to NF-kappa-B activation, cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response (PubMed:15361868, PubMed:24316379, PubMed:19506249).

Increases IL-8 transcription (PubMed:9013863). Involved in IL-18-mediated signaling pathway.
