OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes the interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1, one of two putative serine/threonine kinases that become associated with the interleukin-1 receptor (IL1R) upon stimulation. This gene is partially responsible for IL1-induced upregulation of the transcription factor NF-kappa B. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads IRAK1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against IRAK1 could matter depends on whether native IRAK1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
IRAK1 is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label IRAK1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
