NF-kappa-B is a pleiotropic transcription factor present in almost all cell types and is the endpoint of a series of signal transduction events that are initiated by a vast array of stimuli related to many biological processes such as inflammation, immunity, differentiation, cell growth, tumorigenesis and apoptosis. NF-kappa-B is a homo- or heterodimeric complex formed by the Rel-like domain-containing proteins RELA/p65, RELB, NFKB1/p105, NFKB1/p50, REL and NFKB2/p52 and the heterodimeric p65-p50 complex appears to be most abundant one. The dimers bind at kappa-B sites in the DNA of their target genes and the individual dimers have distinct preferences for different kappa-B sites that they can bind with distinguishable affinity and specificity. Different dimer combinations act as transcriptional activators or repressors, respectively. NF-kappa-B is controlled by various mechanisms of post-translational modification and subcellular compartmentalization as well as by interactions with other cofactors or corepressors. NF-kappa-B complexes are held in the cytoplasm in an inactive state complexed with members of the NF-kappa-B inhibitor (I-kappa-B) family. In a conventional activation pathway, I-kappa-B is phosphorylated by I-kappa-B kinases (IKKs) in response to different activators, subsequently degraded thus liberating the active NF-kappa-B complex which translocates to the nucleus. NF-kappa-B heterodimeric p65-p50 and p65-c-Rel complexes are transcriptional activators. The NF-kappa-B p65-p65 complex appears to be involved in invasin-mediated activation of IL-8 expression. The inhibitory effect of I-kappa-B upon NF-kappa-B the cytoplasm is exerted primarily through the interaction with p65. p65 shows a weak DNA-binding site which could contribute directly to DNA binding in the NF-kappa-B complex. Associates with chromatin at the NF-kappa-B promoter region via association with DDX1.

Nuclear factor B (NF-B) encompasses an important family of inducible transcriptional activators that regulate a wide variety of cellular and viral genes (1). The family members include p50, p52, p65 (RelA), c-Rel, and RelB. (2). The p65 subunit, similar to two others in the B family, RelB and c-Rel, contains two transactivation domains in the C-terminal region of the protein (3). Association with inhibitory proteins of the I?B family, retains NF-?B in the cytoplasm. Degradation of IB proteins exposes the nuclear localization sequence (NLS), leading to nuclear translocation and subsequent binding of NF-B to DNA (4). In addition to the nuclear translocation and DNA binding, NF-Bs transcriptional activity is also regulated by coactivators and corepressors in the nucleus. Interaction of p65 with coactivators; CREB-binding protein (Cat # 1496-1 & 1113-1) and p300, increases its transcriptional activity (5).
