  ID: TRAF3_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=TNF receptor-associated factor 3; AltName: Full=CAP-1; AltName: Full=CD40 receptor-associated factor 1; Short=CRAF1; AltName: Full=CD40-binding protein; Short=CD40BP; AltName: Full=LMP1-associated protein 1; Short=LAP1;
FUNCTION: Regulates pathways leading to the activation of NF- kappa-B and MAP kinases, and plays a central role in the regulation of B-cell survival. Part of signaling pathways leading to the production of cytokines and interferon. Required for normal antibody isotype switching from IgM to IgG. Plays a role T-cell dependent immune responses. Plays a role in the regulation of antiviral responses. Is an essential constituent of several E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes. May have E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity and promote 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination of target proteins. Inhibits activation of NF-kappa-B in response to LTBR stimulation. Inhibits TRAF2-mediated activation of NF-kappa- B. Down-regulates proteolytic processing of NFKB2, and thereby inhibits non-canonical activation of NF-kappa-B. Promotes ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of MAP3K14.
SUBUNIT: Homotrimer. Heterotrimer with TRAF2 and TRAF5. Interacts with LTBR/TNFRSF3, TNFRSF4, TNFRSF5/CD40, TNFRSF8/CD30, TNFRSF13C TNFRSF17/BCMA, TLR4 and EDAR. Interacts with MAP3K5, MAP3K14, TRAIP/TRIP, TDP2/TTRAP, TANK/ITRAF and TRAF3IP1. Interaction with TNFRSF5/CD40 is modulated by TANK/ITRAF, which competes for the same binding site. Interacts with TICAM1. Interacts with TRAFD1. Interacts with OTUB1, OTUB2 and OTUD5. Interacts with RNF216, MAVS, OPTN and TBK1. Identified in a complex with TRAF2, MAP3K14 and BIRC3. Interacts with BIRC2 and BIRC3. Upon exposure to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), recruited to a transient complex containing TLR4, TRAF3, TRAF6, IKBKG, MAP3K7, MYD88, TICAM1, BIRC2, BIRC3 and UBE2N (By similarity). Interacts with Epstein-Barr virus protein LMP1. Interacts (via RING-type zinc finger domain) with SRC.
INTERACTION: Q9QYP6:Azi2 (xeno); NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-357631, EBI-6115874; P25942:CD40; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-357631, EBI-525714; P15314:Irf1 (xeno); NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-357631, EBI-6115486; Q92844:TANK; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-357631, EBI-356349; Q8TDR0:TRAF3IP1; NbExp=8; IntAct=EBI-357631, EBI-928811; A2APF7:Zbp1 (xeno); NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-357631, EBI-6115394;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (Probable). Endosome (By similarity). Mitochondrion. Note=Undergoes endocytosis together with TLR4 upon LPS signaling (By similarity). Associated with mitochondria in response to virus.
DOMAIN: The MATH/TRAF domain binds to receptor cytoplasmic domains.
DOMAIN: The Ring-type zinc finger domain is required for its function in down-regulation of NFKB2 proteolytic processing (By similarity).
PTM: Undergoes 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitination, leading to its proteasomal degradation in response to signaling by TNFSF13B, TLR4 or through CD40. Undergoes 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination during early stages of virus infection, and 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitination during later stages. Undergoes both 'Lys-48'-linked and 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination in response to TLR3 and TLR4 signaling (By similarity). Deubiquitinated by OTUB1, OTUB2 and OTUD5.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the TNF receptor-associated factor family. A subfamily.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 MATH domain.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.
SIMILARITY: Contains 2 TRAF-type zinc fingers.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
