Nuclear factor kB (NF-kB) is a family of structurally related transcription factors. In mammals, the NF-kB family consists of five members: NF-kB1 (p105/50), NF-kB2 (p100/52), RelA (p65), RelB and c-Rel. They all have a structurally conserved N-terminal 300-amino-acid Rel homology domain (RHD), whic

## Abstract Induction of T cell tolerance in the thymus (central tolerance) is essential for preventing organ‐specific autoimmunity. This apparent paradox is in part explained by promiscuous expression of numerous tissue‐restricted self‐antigens (TRA) in medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTEC), wh
