Protocols

Specificity / Sensitivity

IRAK1 (D51G7) XP® Rabbit mAb detects endogenous levels of total IRAK1 protein.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxyl terminus of mouse IRAK1.

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from RD, 293 and A20 cells using IRAK1 (D51G7) XP® Rabbit mAb.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from COS-7 cells, either mock transfected or transfected with human IRAK1, using IRAK1 (D51G7) XP® Rabbit mAb.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from THP-1, mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF), RAW264.7 and NIH/3T3 cells using IRAK1 (D51G7) XP® Rabbit mAb.


Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from HeLa cells, transfected with 100 nM SignalSilence® Control siRNA (Unconjugated) #6568 (-), SignalSilence® IRAK1 siRNA I (+) or SignalSilence® IRAK1 siRNA II #6228 (+), using IRAK1 (D51G7) XP® Rabbit mAb #4504 (upper) or α-Tubulin (11H10) Rabbit mAb #2125 (lower). The IRAK1 (D51G7) XP® Rabbit mAb confirms silencing of IRAK1 expression, while the α-Tubulin (11H10) Rabbit mAb is used as a loading control.

IF-IC

Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of HEK/293 cells using IRAK1 (D51G7) XP® Rabbit mAb (green). Actin filaments have been labeled using DY-554 phalloidin (red). Blue pseudocolor = DRAQ5® #4084 (fluorescent DNA dye).

Background

Interleukin-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).
