Signaling components required for the formation of NEMO- and IRAK1-containing structures and NF-κB activation in response to IL-1

Cell genotype Cell type NEMO-containing clusters IRAK1-containing clusters NF-κB activation (nuc. p65) 
Control fibro. Human fibroblast +++ +++ +++ 
NEMO−/− Human fibroblast − +++ − 
MyD88−/− Human fibroblast − − − 
IRAK1−/− HEK-293 − − − 
IRAK1−/− compl. IRAK1 HEK-293 +++ +++ +++ 
IRAK4−/− Human fibroblast +/− +++ +/− 
Cell genotype Cell type NEMO-containing clusters IRAK1-containing clusters NF-κB activation (nuc. p65) 
Control fibro. Human fibroblast +++ +++ +++ 
NEMO−/− Human fibroblast − +++ − 
MyD88−/− Human fibroblast − − − 
IRAK1−/− HEK-293 − − − 
IRAK1−/− compl. IRAK1 HEK-293 +++ +++ +++ 
IRAK4−/− Human fibroblast +/− +++ +/− 

The indicated cell lines were stimulated with IL-1 for 15 min and analyzed by immunofluorescence for the presence of NEMO or IRAK1 foci and for the nuclear translocation of p65. “IRAK1−/− compl. IRAK1” refers to IRAK1−/− cells transiently reconstituted with IRAK1. “+++” indicates that the event was fully observed (same frequency as for IL-1–treated control cells). “+/−” indicates that the event was observed with a frequency <10% that for control cells. “−” indicates that the event was not observed.
