Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunocytochemistry (ICC)
Specificity
IRAK-4 antibody is predicted to not cross-react with other members of the IRAK protein family.
Purification
IRAK-4 Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
Anti-IRAK4 antibody was raised against a peptide corresponding to 13 amino acids near the carboxy terminus of human IRAK4. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of IRAK4.

IRAK-4 Antibody: Interleukin-1 (IL-1) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces cellular responses through IL-1 receptor (IL-1R) and Toll-like receptors (TLR). IL-1R-associated kinases (IRAK, IRAK2, and IRAK-M) regulate the activation of NF-κ,B and MAP kinase (MAPK) by IL-1R/TLR. A novel member in the IRAK/Pelle family was recently identified and designated IRAK-4. Overexpression of IRAK-4 activates NF-κ,B and MAPK pathways. IRAK-4 interacts with and phosphorylates IRAK-1. IRAK-4-deficient animals are completely resistant to the challenge with LPS. Animals and humans lacking IRAK-4 are impaired in their responses to viral and bacterial challenges. Members in IRAK/Pelle family play a central role in IL-1R/TLR mediated inflammatory responses and in innate immunity.
