Figure 5

NF-kB activation process from different perspectives. A fragment (R3~R6) of the NF-kB lifecycle pathway in Figure 2 represents the process of NF-kB activation. (a), (b), and (c) illustrate a breakdown of the process from different perspectives: (a) from the perspective of the functional state of the NF-kB, (b) from the perspective of the molecular state of the NF-kB, and (c) from the perspective of the molecular state of the IkBa. Although (c) does not represent NF-kB directly, the state change of IkBa can be interpreted as a part of NF-kB activation process. It is reflected in the entities of the NF-kB/IkBa complex in the NF-kB pathway in Figure 1, which correspond to I7, I8 and I9 in Table 3.
