The mouse monoclonal antibody DR-4-02 recognizes an extracellular epitope of TRAIL-R1 (DR4), a human death receptor 4 expressed in most human tissues (spleen, peripheral blood leucocytes, thymus) and in a variety of tumour-derived cell lines.
Cross-Reactivity (Details)
Human
Purification
Purified antibody is conjugated with R-phycoerythrin (PE) under optimum conditions. Unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.
Immunogen
Fusion protein containing the extracellular part of TRAIL-R1 and the constant part of the heavy chain of the human IgG1.

Background
TNF receptor superfamily member 10a,TRAIL-R1 (CD261, DR4) is a type I transmembrane protein, also called TRAIL receptor 1. The ligand for this DR4 death receptor has been identified and termed TRAIL, which is a member of the TNF family. DR4, as many other receptors (Fas, TNFR1, etc.), mediates apoptosis and NF kappaB activation in many cells and tissues. Apoptosis, a programmed cell death, is a operating process in normal cellular differentiation and development of multicellular organisms. Apoptosis is induced by coupled of certain cytokines (TNF family - TNF, Fas ligand) and their death domain containing receptors (TNFR1, Fas receptor).,DR4, APO2, TNFRSF10A, TRAILR1, TRAIL-R1
