{"product_id":"biolegend-696402","title":"Biolegend, 696402, Purified anti-IRF7 Antibody, 100μg","description":"\u003cp\u003eIRF-7 is a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor family that plays key regulatory roles in innate immunity. Upon virus infection, IRF-7 forms a complex with MyD88 and TRAF6 when stimulated by toll-like receptors TLR7, TLR8, and TLR9, which in turn results in nuclear translocation and induction of interferon gene expression. IRF-7 gene expression is upregulated by the stimulation of interferon through the Jak-STAT signaling pathway, which forms a positive feedback loop. The protein level of IRF-7 after activation is then downregulated by the ubiquitin-proteasome system to avoid excessive production of interferons that may cause damage to the host. Virus induced type I interferon expression was completely abrogated in IRF-7 knockout mice, suggesting that IRF-7 is critical for interferon mediated host defense during virus infection.\u003cbr\u003e\n100μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Rat\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Partial mouse IRF7 recombinant protein (127-487a.a.) expressed in E. coli.\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide.\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.5 mg\/ml\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: WB - Quality tested\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by western blotting.
