NF-κB p65 Protein is a NF-κB transcription factors. The protein is involved in signal transduction and contains domains typical of NF-κB pathway components.
RELA (p65) is a key transcription factor subunit of NF-κB. It contains a REL homology domain for DNA binding and dimerization, and a transactivation domain for gene expression. RELA heterodimers (RELA/p50) are the predominant form of NF-κB. It regulates inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6), anti-apoptotic proteins (BCL-XL, c-IAP), and adhesion molecules.
Chronic RELA activation drives neuroinflammation in AD, PD, and HD. RELA contributes to excitotoxicity and neuronal death. Mutations cause defects in immune response.
