Summary
IL1A (interleukin 1 alpha, HGNC:5991) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2q14.1, encoding Interleukin-1 alpha (P01583). Cytokine constitutively present intracellularly in nearly all resting non-hematopoietic cells that plays an important role in inflammation and bridges the innate and adaptive immune systems.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. This cytokine is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in various immune responses, inflammatory processes, and hematopoiesis. This cytokine is produced by monocytes and macrophages as a proprotein, which is proteolytically processed and released in response to cell injury, and thus induces apoptosis. This gene and eight other interleukin 1 family genes form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 2. It has been suggested that the polymorphism of these genes is associated with rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer’s disease.

Function. Cytokine constitutively present intracellularly in nearly all resting non-hematopoietic cells that plays an important role in inflammation and bridges the innate and adaptive immune systems. After binding to its receptor IL1R1 together with its accessory protein IL1RAP, forms the high affinity interleukin-1 receptor complex. Signaling involves the recruitment of adapter molecules such as MYD88, IRAK1 or IRAK4. In turn, mediates the activation of NF-kappa-B and the three MAPK pathways p38, p42/p44 and JNK pathways. Within the cell, acts as an alarmin and cell death results in its liberation in the extracellular space after disruption of the cell membrane to induce inflammation and alert the host to injury or damage. In addition to its role as a danger signal, which occurs when the cytokine is passively released by cell necrosis, directly senses DNA damage and acts as a signal for genotoxic stress without loss of cell integrity.
Subunit / interactions. Monomer. Interacts with TMED10; the interaction mediates the translocation from the cytoplasm into the ERGIC (endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment) and thereby secretion. Interacts with IL1R1. Interacts with S100A13; this interaction is the first step in the export of IL1A, followed by direct translocation of this complex across the plasma membrane.
Subcellular location. Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Secreted.
Post-translational modifications. Acetylated within its nuclear localization sequence, which impacts subcellular localization. Proteolytic processed by CAPN1 in a calcium-dependent manner. Cleavage from 31 kDa precursor to 18 kDa biologically active molecules. Phosphorylated. Phosphorylation greatly enhances susceptibility to digestion and promotes the conversion of pre-IL1A alpha to the biologically active IL1A.
Domain organisation. The similarity among the IL-1 precursors suggests that the amino ends of these proteins serve some as yet undefined function.
Similarity. Belongs to the IL-1 family.
