Summary

LRRC19 (leucine rich repeat containing 19, HGNC:23379) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 9p21.2, encoding Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 19 (Q9H756). Pathogen-recognition receptor which mediates the activation of TRAF2- and TRAF6 NF-kappa-B signaling pathways and induces the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Predicted to enable signaling receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of non-canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane.

Function. Pathogen-recognition receptor which mediates the activation of TRAF2- and TRAF6 NF-kappa-B signaling pathways and induces the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. In kidney, prevents infection by uropathogenic bacteria by inducing the production of cytokines, chemokines and antimicrobial substances. In gut, involved in host-microbiota interactions, plays a critical role in promoting the recruitment of immune cells and intestinal inflammation.

Subunit / interactions. Interacts with TRAF2 and TRAF6.

Subcellular location. Membrane.

Tissue specificity. Expressed in renal collecting duct epithelial cells.

Activity regulation. Activated by TLR ligands such as LPS, bacterial DNA and peptidoglycan.
