The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the [[toll-like receptor]] (TLR) family which plays a fundamental role in pathogen recognition and activation of innate immunity. TLRs are highly conserved from Drosophila to humans and share structural and functional similarities. They recognize microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) that are expressed on infectious agens, and mediate the production of cytokines necessary for the development of effective immunity.

Toll-like receptor 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TLR6 gene.[5] TLR6 has also been designated as CD286 (cluster of differentiation 286).

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the toll-like receptor (TLR) family which plays a fundamental role in pathogen recognition and activation of innate immunity. TLRs are highly conserved from Drosophila to humans and share structural and functional similarities. They recognize microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) that are expressed on infectious agens, and mediate the production of cytokines necessary for the development of effective immunity. The various TLRs exhibit different patterns of expression. This receptor functionally interacts with toll-like receptor 2 to mediate cellular response to bacterial lipoproteins.[6]

Interactions

TLR6 has been shown to interact in a heterodimer form with TLR2.[7] Synergistic interactions of TLR2/6 and TLR9 leading to higher resistance against lung infection have also been reported.[8]

Agonists

TLR2/6 heterodimer is known to be specific for diacylated lipopeptides such as lipoteichoic acid, found on the cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria or macrophage-activating lipopeptide (MALP-2), found on the cell membrane of Mycoplasma. It is also known that TLR2/6 binds some viral products, among them hepatitis C core and NS3 protein from the Hepatitis C virus and Glycoprotein B from Cytomegalovirus. Several fungal ligands such as Glucuronoxylomannan, Phospholipomannan and Zymosan have been reported. Moreover TLR2/6 is known to bind one protozoan ligand – Lipopeptidophosphoglycan.[9]

Expression

In human, TLR6 is highly expressed in appendix, spleen and lymph node.[10] From the immune cells, TLR6 has been detected in conventional dendritic cells, monocytes, neutrophils, NK cells and B lymphocytes.[11]
