Ye H, Park Y C, Kreishman M, Kieff E, Wu H†. Mol Cell (1999). PDF

Many members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily initiate intracellular signaling by recruiting TNFR-associated factors (TRAFs) through their cytoplasmic tails. TRAFs apparently recognize highly diverse receptor sequences. Crystal structures of the TRAF domain of human TRAF2 in complex with peptides from the TNFR family members CD40, CD30, Ox40, 4-1BB,..

A Novel Mechanism of TRAF Signaling Revealed by Structural and Functional Analyses of the TRADD–TRAF2 Interaction

Park Y C, Ye H, Hsia C, Segal D, Rich R L, Liou H C, Myszka D G, Wu H†. Cell (2000). PDF

TRAF proteins are major mediators for the cell activation, cell survival, and antiapoptotic functions of the TNF receptor superfamily. They can be recruited to activated TNF receptors either by direct interactions with the receptors or indirectly via the adaptor protein TRADD. We now report the structure... Read More

The structural basis for the recognition of diverse receptor sequences by TRAF2.

Structural basis for self-association and receptor recognition of human TRAF2

Park Y C, Burkitt V, Villa A R, Tong L, Wu H†. Nature (1999). PDF

Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-receptor-associated factors (TRAFs) form a family of cytoplasmic adapter proteins that mediate signal transduction from many members of the TNF-receptor superfamily and the interleukin-1 receptor1 . They are important in the regulation of cell survival and cell death. The carboxy-terminal region of TRAFs (the TRAF domain) is required for self-association and interaction with receptors...
