Members of the TRAF family share a common carboxy-terminal \"TRAF domain\", which mediates interactions with associated proteins; many also contain amino-terminal Zinc\/RING finger motifs. The first TRAFs identified, TRAF1 and TRAF2, were found by virtue of their interactions with the cytoplasmic domain of TNF-receptor 2 (TNFRII) (4). The six known TRAFs (TRAF1-6) act as adaptor proteins for a wide range of cell surface receptors and participate in the regulation of cell survival, proliferation, differentiation, and stress responses. TRAF4, also referred to as CART1 and MLN62, is a divergent member of the TRAF family with relatively weak binding to TNFR family members (5-7). Interactions have been observed between TRAF4 and the neurotrophin receptor p75-NGFR, lymphotoxin-β receptor, and GITR (8-10). While originally identified in metastatic breast carcinoma, TRAF4 has been shown to contribute to tumor growth and invasion in various cancers including breast, lung and colon (11-13). Expression of Traf4 is induced by the tumor suppressor p53 in response to DNA damage, and can promote apoptosis (14).TRAF4 has also been shown to play a critical role in TGF-β signaling, where it has been found to antagonize the E3 ligase Smurf, resulting in enhanced receptor stabilization driving breast cancer metastasis (15).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCART1; cysteine-rich domain associated with ring and TRAF domain; Cysteine-rich domain associated with RING and Traf domains protein 1; malignant 62; Metastatic lymph node gene 62 protein; MLN 62; MLN62; RING finger protein 83; RNF83; TNF receptor associated factor 4; TNF receptor-associated factor 4; TRAF4; TRAF4 variant 6; tumor necrosis receptor-associated factor 4A\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 50\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797637615785,"sku":"18527T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-18527t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
