Samples, including standards of known DR5 concentrations, control specimens or unknowns are pipetted into these wells. During the first incubation, the standards or samples and a biotinylated monoclonal antibody specific for DR5 are simultaneously incubated. After washing, the enzyme Streptavidin-HRP, that binds the biotinylated antibody is added, incubated and washed. A TMB substrate solution is added which acts on the bound enzyme to induce a colored reaction product. The intensity of this colored product is directly proportional to the concentration of DR5 present in the samples.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis kit will recognize both endogenous and recombinant Human DR5.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-+4°C, Storage information-+4°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nDR5 also known as Death Receptor 5 TRAIL-R2 or TNFRSF10B is a protein critical in apoptosis. 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":46855674462377,"sku":"ab46013","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab46013","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
