symbol: kra. This Drosophila melanogaster protein, encoded by gene CG2078, has been identified by Charatsi et al (2003). Krapfen encodes the Drosophila homolog of MyD88, an adapter protein operating in the mammalian IL1 pathway. Krapfen acts between the receptor Toll and the cytoplasmic factor Tube and most likely forms heterotrimeric complexes with Tube and Pelle and is required for the establishment of dorsoventral patterning in the Drosophila embryo.
Marek and Kagan (2012) have reported that Toll signaling in flies is dictated by the subcellular localization of the adaptor protein krapfen. Krapfen is located at the
