From the abstract
TBK1 is a serine-tyrosine kinase protein that transmits signals from pattern recognition receptors to the NF-κB pathway leading to production of Type 1 Interferons. Mutations in this protein have been associated with arthritis, vasculitis, herpes simplex encephalitis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
