Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Key component of innate and adaptive immunity. TLRs (Toll-like receptors) control host immune response against pathogens through recognition of molecular patterns specific to microorganisms. TLR3 is a nucleotide-sensing TLR which is activated by double-stranded RNA, a sign of viral infection. Acts via the adapter TRIF/TICAM1, leading to NF-kappa-B activation, IRF3 nuclear translocation, cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Endosome membrane {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Highly expressed in lung. After intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide, highly expressed in brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung and spleen.
