Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human IRAK1 sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-04AMY95

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: VRG(pT)LAY(bA)C

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues V384 to Y390; In protein kinase catalytic domain activation T-loop between subdomains VII and VIII.

Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced by solid phase synthesis on a multipep peptide synthesizer and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. This peptide was coupled to KLH prior to immunization into rabbits. New Zealand White rabbits were subcutaneously injected with KLH-coupled immunizing peptide every 4 weeks for 4 months. The sera from these animals was applied onto an agarose column to which the immunogen peptide was thio-linked. Antibody was eluted from the column with 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5. Subsequently, the antibody solution was neutralized to pH 7.0 with saturated Tris.This antibody was also subject to negative purification over phosphotyrosine-agarose.

Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.

Scientific Background: IRAK1 is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the TKL group and IRAK family. It plays a critical role in initiating innate immune response against foreign pathogens. It is involved in Toll-like receptor (TLR) and IL-1R signalling pathways, and Is rapidly recruited by MYD88 to the receptor-signalling complex upon TLR activation. Its association with MYD88 leads to IRAK1 phosphorylation by IRAK4 and subsequent autophosphorylation and kinase activation. It phosphorylates E3 ubiquitin ligases Pellino proteins (PELI1, PELI2 and PELI3) to promote pellino-mediated polyubiquitination of IRAK1. Then, the ubiquitin-binding domain of IKBKG/NEMO binds to polyubiquitinated IRAK1 bringing together the IRAK1-MAP3K7/TAK1-TRAF6 complex and the NEMO-IKKA-IKKB complex. IRAK1 phosphorylates TIRAP to promote its ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. It phosphorylates the interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) to induce its activation and translocation to the nucleus, to stimulate transcriptional activation of type I IFN genes, which drive the cell in an antiviral state. When sumoylated, IRAK1 translocates to the nucleus and phosphorylates STAT3. This kinase is moderate to highly expressed in most tested human tissues.
