The transcription factor NFκB (Nuclear Factor κB) is involved in the expression and regulation of a number of important cellular and physiological processes such as growth, development, apoptosis, immune and inflammatory response, and activation of various viral promoters including human immunodeficiency virus long terminal repeats. NFκB represents a group of structurally related and evolutionarily conserved proteins related to the proto-oncogene c-Rel with five members in mammals that include Rel (cRel), RelA (p65), RelB, NFκB1 (p50 and its precursor p105), and NFκB2 (p52 and its precursor p100). NFκB/Rel proteins exist as homo- or heterodimers to form transcriptionally competent or repressive complexes. Although most NFκB dimers are activators of transcription, the p50/50 and p52/52 homodimers can repress the transcription of their target genes. The p50/p65 heterodimer of NFκB is the most abundant in cells.
