Summary: Enables diacyl lipopeptide binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to oxidised low-density lipoprotein particle stimulus; positive regulation of biosynthetic process; and positive regulation of defense response. Part of Toll-like receptor 2-Toll-like receptor 6 protein complex. Is expressed in brain; cerebral cortex; embryo; and telencephalon. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in aspergillosis; asthma; infective endocarditis; rhinitis; and tuberculosis. Orthologous to human TLR6 (toll like receptor 6).

Data suggest that the transmembrane domains of Tlr4 and Tlr6 have essential roles in Tlr4/Tlr6/Cd36 receptor multimerization and activation; disruption of receptor multimerization (here, using a recombinant peptide fragment from Tlr4 transmembrane domain) reduces secretion of proinflammatory mediators from microglia and ultimately rescues neurons from death.
Title: Intramembrane attenuation of the TLR4-TLR6 dimer impairs receptor assembly and reduces microglia-mediated neurodegeneration.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
