UNC93B1

UNC93B1 is a protein that plays a key role in the immune system by helping certain immune sensors, called toll-like receptors (TLRs), get to the right place inside immune cells. These sensors detect harmful microbes like viruses and bacteria. Without UNC93B1, TLRs can't properly reach their destinations, which impairs the body's ability to recognize and respond to infections. Essentially, UNC93B1 acts as a chaperone, ensuring the immune system can identify threats effectively and initiate appropriate defense mechanisms.
