Antibodies were purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromagraphy.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nInterleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor-associated kinase (IRAK) is a serine\/threonine-specific kinase that can be coprecipitated in an IL-1-inducible manner with the IL-1 receptor (1). The mammalian family of IRAK molecules contains four members (IRAK1, IRAK2, IRAK3\/IRAK-M, and IRAK4). The binding of IL-1 to IL-1 receptor type I (IL-1RI) initiates the formation of a complex that includes IL-1RI, AcP, MyD88, and IRAKs (2). IRAK undergoes autophosphorylation shortly after IL-1 stimulation. The subsequent events involve IRAK dissociation from the IL-1RI complex, its ubiquitination, and its association with two membrane-bound proteins: TAB2 and TRAF6. The resulting IRAK-TRAF6-TAB2 complex is then released into the cytoplasm where it activates protein kinase cascades, including TAK1, IKKs, and the stress-activated kinases (3). Unlike IRAK1 and IRAK4, IRAK2 and IRAK-M do not have significant kinase activity although they can still activate NF-κB when overexpressed (4). Expression of IRAK-M is more restricted compared to other family members with highest levels of expression occurring in monocytes\/macrophages (4). Studies from IRAK-M knockout mice suggest that IRAK-M may play a role as a negative regulator of Toll-like receptor signaling and innate immune responses by preventing the dissociation of IRAK1 and IRAK4 from MyD88 and the subsequent formation of its complex with TRAF6 (5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nASRT5; FLJ13601; IL-1 receptor-associated kinase M; interleukin 1 receptor associated kinase 3; Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 3; interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase M; IRAK-3; IRAK-M; IRAK3; IRAKM\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 68\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799507161257,"sku":"4369S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-4369s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
