Buffer
PBS containing 0.02 % sodium azide.
Preservative
Sodium azide
Precaution of Use
WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.

TAB1
(TGF-beta Activated Kinase 1/MAP3K7 Binding Protein 1 (TAB1))
TAB1 was identified as a regulator of the MAP kinase kinase kinase TAK1/MAP3K7, which is known to mediate various intracellular signaling pathways, such as those induced by TGF-beta and members of the Toll-IL-1R (TIR) superfamily, thus acting as an intermediate in both proliferative and innate and adaptive immune responses.This protein, together with either TAB2 or TAB3, activates TAK1 kinase in response to upstream signals.It has been shown that the C-terminal portion of TAB1 is sufficient for binding and activation of TAK1, while a portion of the N-terminus acts as a dominant-negative inhibitor of TGF-beta, demonstrating how this protein can function as a mediator between TGF-beta receptors and TAK1.
