A coding IRAK2 variant compromises TLR signaling and is associated with colorectal cancer survival.
Within innate immune signaling pathways, Interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R&)-associated kinases (IRAKs) fulfill key roles downstream of multiple Toll-like receptors (TLR) and the IL-1R. Whereas human IRAK4-deficiency was shown to lead to severe immunodeficiency in response to pyogenic bacterial infection during childhood, little is known about the role of human IRAK2. We here identified a non-syno
