| Name | unc-93 homolog B1 (C. elegans) |
| Description | This gene encodes a protein that is involved in innate and adaptive immune response by regulating toll-like receptor signaling. The encoded protein traffics nucleotide sensing toll-like receptors to the endolysosome from the endoplasmic reticulum. Deficiency of the encoded protein has been associated with herpes simplex encephalitis. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014] |
| Summary |
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nUNC93B1 is an evolutionarily conserved, multi–transmembrane domain protein that functions as an essential chaperone in the endoplasmic reticulum, orchestrating the intracellular trafficking and maturation of nucleic acid–sensing Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) such as TLR3, TLR7, TLR8, TLR9, and TLR13. By facilitating the exit of these receptors from the ER and ensuring their proper delivery to endolysosomes – where they often undergo critical proteolytic cleavage to generate active signaling fragments – UNC93B1 ensures robust antiviral and innate immune responses. In human antigen‐presenting cells, even modest alterations in UNC93B1 expression can affect TLR responsiveness, underscoring its central role in innate immune surveillance and interferon regulation."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "8"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nMoreover, UNC93B1 is a key regulator that modulates TLR signaling thresholds to maintain self‐tolerance.
