title: IKK epsilon signaling: not just NF-kappaB.
abstract: IkappaB kinases (IKKs) are key components of NF-kappaB signaling pathways in innate immunity and inflammation. Surprisingly, three recent reports implicate IKKs in Drosophila in seemingly unrelated functions, including non-apoptotic caspase activation and cytoskeleton organization.
