The transcription factor nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) is activated by a diverse number of stimuli
including tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1, UV irradiation, viruses, as well as receptor
tyrosine kinases such as the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). NF-κB activation by
the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) involves the formation of a multiprotein complex
termed a signalosome. Although previous studies have shown that the activated EGFR can
induce NF-κB, the mechanism of this activation remains unknown. In this study, we identify …
