摘要：I{kappa}B kinase (IKK), discovered as the major activator of NF-{kappa}B, plays additional roles in signaling. By using mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) lacking both the {alpha} and {beta} subunits of IKK, we find that these proteins are required for induction of a major subset of IFN{gamma}-stimulated genes and that this requirement is independent of NF-{kappa}B activation. Furthermore, there is no defect in IFN{gamma}-stimulated signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (Stat1) activation or function in the IKK{alpha}/{beta}-null MEFs. Therefore, although activated Stat1 dimers are necessary for the activation of these genes in response to IFN{gamma
