IRAK-2 Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
IRAK2 antibody was raised against a peptide corresponding to amino acids near the carboxy terminus of human IRAK2. The immunogen is located within amino acids 530 - 580 of IRAK-2.
IRAK-2 antibody can be used for detection of IRAK2 by Western blot at 2 μ,g/mL. A 65 kDa band should be detected. This polyclonal antibody can also detect IRAK2 by immunocytochemistry at 2 μ,g/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 10 μ,g/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples, Immunocytochemistry in human samples and Immunofluorescence in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

IRAK-2 Antibody: The pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1 induces cellular response through two subunits of its receptor, IL-1 receptor I (IL-1RI) and IL-1 receptor accessory protein (IL-1RAcP). IL-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK) mediates activation of NF-κ,B, which is a pivotal transcription factor mediating inflammatory and immune response. A novel member in the IRAK/Pelle family was recently identified and designated IRAK2. Both IRAK and IRAK2 recruit to the subunits of the IL-1R complex after IL-1 binding and lead to NF-κ,B activation. IRAKs also associate with Toll like receptor (TLR) and the dominant negative mutants of IRAKs inhibit LPS-induced NF-κ,B activation. Members in IRAK/Pelle family play a central role in IL-1R and TLR mediated inflammatory response. IRAK2 is expressed in a variety of human tissues.
