Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-like 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the IRAK2gene.[5][6]
Function
IRAK2 encodes the interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 2, one of two putative serine/threonine kinases that become associated with the interleukin-1 receptor (IL1R) upon stimulation. IRAK2 is reported to participate in the IL1-induced upregulation of NF-kappaB.[6]
