Description
TRAFD1 (TRAF-type zinc finger domain containing 1) encodes a protein that functions as a negative regulator of Toll-like receptor (TLR) and RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) signaling pathways. It interacts with TRAF proteins and inhibits NF-kappaB and IRF activation, thereby modulating innate immune responses and interferon production.

Protein Summary
TRAFD1 is a 541-amino acid protein containing a TRAF-type zinc finger domain and a C-terminal coiled-coil region. It localizes to the cytoplasm and acts as a negative feedback regulator of innate immune signaling by interacting with TRAF3 and TRAF6, leading to inhibition of IRF3 and NF-kappaB activation. The protein also modulates antiviral responses and is implicated in autoimmune and neoplastic processes.
