Suitable for Mouse samples. TARGET: DR5 (TNFRSF10B) is a pro-apoptotic death receptor for the TRAIL protein, which induces cell death. Five TRAIL receptors have been identified, however only two, DR4 and DR5 contain the death domain and have been identified as promising targets for cancer treatment. TRAIL. Mouse DR5 has similar function to human DR4 and DR5, and is studied in mouse tumor models exploring TRAIL therapies and resistance mechanisms.\u003cbr\u003e\nKey facts\u003cbr\u003e\nHost species:Rabbit,\u003cbr\u003e\nClonality:Monoclonal,\u003cbr\u003e\nClone number:EPR28153-84,\u003cbr\u003e\nIsotype:IgG,\u003cbr\u003e\nCarrier free:No,\u003cbr\u003e\nReacts with:Mouse,\u003cbr\u003e\nApplications:Flow Cyt (Intra), WBSee reactivity dataSee the reactivity data table below for information on validated species and application combinations.,\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen:The exact immunogen used to generate this antibody is proprietary information.,\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecificity:Unsuitable for mouse tissue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProduct details:\u003cbr\u003e\nPatented technology\u003cbr\u003e\nOur RabMAb\u003cbr\u003e\ntechnology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies.

It is a transmembrane receptor with a mass of approximately 54 kDa. Researchers find it expressed mostly in tissues such as lung colon and prostate. DR5 functions by binding to its ligand TRAIL triggering the extrinsic apoptotic pathway. Through this mechanism DR5 initiates a cascade of caspase activation that leads to cell death.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nDR5 plays a significant role in the regulation of apoptosis particularly in cancer cells. It is a component of the TRAIL receptor complex which includes several other death receptors like DR4. This complex formation allows DR5 to mediate apoptotic signals more efficiently. By controlling apoptosis DR5 helps maintain tissue homeostasis and prevents abnormal cell proliferation.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nDR5 is an important part of the TRAIL signaling pathway and the extrinsic apoptosis pathway. It connects with proteins like FADD and Caspase-8 essential in the apoptotic signaling cascade. By interacting with these proteins DR5 drives the progression of the apoptotic signal ensuring the removal of dysfunctional cells. Such pathways are vital for restraining tumor development and progression.\u003cbr\u003e\nDR5 exhibits significant relevance to cancer and autoimmune diseases. Its ability to induce apoptosis through the TRAIL pathway keeps oncogenic transformations in check. In cancer DR5 often interfaces with other proteins like Bcl-2 which are involved in cell survival. Furthermore defects or aberrant expressions in DR5 have associations with autoimmune disorders where excessive cell death or survival contributes to disease pathology. DR5's role in these conditions makes it a promising target in therapeutic strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850293301417,"sku":"ab321972","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab321972","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
