TRAF6 E3 ubiquitin ligase activity was shown to be essential for IRF7 activation, although the role of TRAF6-dependent ubiquitination remains unclear [Kawai T et al 2004]. It has been demonstrated that IRF7 is ubiquitinated by TRAF6 at multiple sites both in vitro and in vivo[Ning et al 2008].It has been also shown that K63-linked ubiquitination of IRF7 is independent of its C-terminal functional phosphorylation sites.
