IkappaB kinase (IKK), discovered as the major activator of NF-kappaB, 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 IFNgamma-stimulated genes and that this requirement is independent of NF-kappaB activation. Furthermore, there is no defect in IFNgamma-stimulated signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (Stat1) activation or function in the IKKalpha/beta-null MEFs. Therefore, although activated Stat1 dinners are necessary for the activation of these genes in response to IFNgamma, they are not sufficient. These results reveal an important additional pathway for IFNgamma-stimulated gene expression in which an NF-kappaB-independent function of IKK is required.
