- Background
- TOLLIP (TOLL-Interacting Protein), is an inhibitory adaptor protein that in humans is encoded by the TOLLIP gene. Lo et al. (2009) stated that the TOLLIP gene maps to chromosome 11. The mouse gene maps to chromosome 7. By Western blot analysis of embryonic kidney cells, Burns et al. (2000) confirmed the binding of TOLLIP to IL1RAP, to a complex of IL1RAP-IL1R1, and to IL18R. Burns et al. (2000) proposed that IL1B stimulation induces aggregation of IL1Rs, recruitment of MYD88 followed by TOLLIP-IRAK complexes, and the phosphorylation of IRAK by MYD88. This leads to the dissociation of TOLLIP from IRAK, which can then transmit the IL1-induced signals.

- Function
- Form a receptor-activated non-selective calcium permeant cation channel. Acts as a cell-cell contact-dependent endothelial calcium entry channel. Probably operated by a phosphatidylinositol second messenger system activated by receptor tyrosine kinases or G-protein coupled receptors. Mediates cation entry, with an enhanced permeability to barium over calcium. May also be activated by intracellular calcium store depletion.
