Tumor necrosis factor, alpha-induced protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNFAIP3 gene.[1][2]

This gene was identified as a gene whose expression is rapidly induced by the tumor necrosis factor (TNF). The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc finger protein, and has been shown to inhibit NF-kappa B activation as well as TNF-mediated apoptosis. Knockout studies of a similar gene in mice suggested that this gene is critical for limiting inflammation by terminating TNF-induced NF-kappa B responses.[2]

Interactions

TNFAIP3 has been shown to interact with TNIP1,[3] TRAF1,[4][5] TRAF2,[4] IKBKG,[6] TAX1BP1,[7] YWHAB,[8] YWHAZ,[8][9] TRAF6[5][10] and YWHAH.[8][9]

Association with rheumatoid arthritis

The TNFAIP3 locus is implicated as a positively associated factor in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The rs5029937 (T) and the rs6920220 (A) SNPs increase risk of RA by 20 to 40% respectively.[11] A third SNP, rs10499194 (T) is found less often in rheumatoid arthritis but this negative association may not be statistically meaningful.
