This entire complex (capture antibody\/analyte\/detector antibody) is in turn immobilized via immunoaffinity of an anti-tag antibody coating the well. To perform the assay, samples or standards are added to the wells, followed by the antibody mix. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound material. CatchPoint HRP Development Solution containing the Stoplight Red Substrate is added. During incubation, the substrate is catalyzed by HRP generating a fluorescent product. Signal is generated proportionally to the amount of bound analyte and the intensity is measured in a fluorescence plater reader at 530\/570\/590 nm Excitation\/Cutoff\/Emission.\u003cbr\u003e\nREACH authorisation\u003cbr\u003e\nAbcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-Multi, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-Multi, Storage information-Please refer to protocols\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nIRAK4 also known as Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 is an important protein with an approximate molecular mass of 51 kDa. This protein is a significant part of the signaling cascade initiated by the Interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) and Toll-like receptors (TLRs). Expressed in a variety of tissues including the spleen thymus and lung IRAK4 is involved in innate immune responses. The presence of IRAK4 protein facilitates the downstream signaling pathways that activate the transcription factors responsible for inflammatory cytokine production.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nIRAK4 plays an important role in mediating signaling in the innate immune system by forming complexes with other proteins such as IRAK-1. These complexes propagate signals that result in the activation of transcription factors like NF-kB and AP-1 which regulate the expression of inflammatory genes. Through these mechanisms IRAK4 influences the body's ability to respond to infections and stresses. Its critical involvement in these signaling pathways highlights its importance in maintaining immune homeostasis.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nIRAK4 is a pivotal player in the Toll-like receptor and IL-1 receptor signaling pathways which are central to the host defense against pathogens. It functions upstream activating the MyD88-dependent pathway resulting in the recruitment and phosphorylation of other kinases such as IRAK-1 and TRAF6. These interactions trigger the NF-kB signaling cascade thereby enhancing pro-inflammatory cytokine production that is essential for initiating immune responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nMutations or dysregulation of IRAK4 are linked to increased susceptibility to recurrent bacterial infections and sepsis. Patients with IRAK4 deficiency have impaired NF-kB activation leading to a weakened inflammatory response. Additionally overexpression of IRAK4 has been observed in certain autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis where the persistent activation of TLR signaling contributes to chronic inflammation. The role of IRAK4 in these disorders ties closely with its interaction with proteins like TRAF6 influencing disease development and progression.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843579400361,"sku":"ab288179","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab288179","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
