Facts about Receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 2.
Contributes to the tyrosine phosphorylation of the guanine exchange factor ARHGEF2 via Src tyrosine kinase resulting in NF-kappaB activation by NOD2. The polyubiquitinated protein mediates the recruitment of MAP3K7/TAK1 into IKBKG/NEMO and induces'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination of IKBKG/NEMO and subsequent activation of IKBKB/IKKB.
