At least four isoforms of IRAK are known to exist, this antibody will detect all four isoforms. IRAK antibody is predicted to not cross-react with other members of the IRAK protein family.
Purification
IRAK Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
Anti-IRAK antibody was raised against a peptide corresponding to 13 amino acids near the carboxy terminus of human IRAK. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of IRAK.

IRAK Antibody: Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κ,B) is a ubiquitous transcription factor and an essential mediator of gene expression during activation of immune and inflammatory responses. NF-κ,B mediates the expression of a great variety of genes in response to extracellular stimuli including IL-1, TNFα, and LPS. A serine/threonine protein kinase associated with IL-1 receptor (IRAK) and its homologue mouse pelle-like protein kinase (mPLK) were identified recently. IRAK is associated with the IL-1 receptor subunits IL-1RI and IL-1RAcP after IL-1 binding and serves as a signaling molecule to mediate IL-1 response. IRAK mediates a signaling cascade leading to NF-κ,B activation by members in IL-1 family including IL-1 and a novel cytokine IL-18 (also termed IGIF).
