Advanced Validation
- VALIDATION:
Independent Antibody Validation in Cell lines (Figure 2) shows similar IRAK4 expression profile in human cell lines detected by two independent anti-IRAK4 antibodies that recognize different epitopes, 3125 against C-terminus domain and 24-025 against recombinant fusion protein. IRAK4 proteins are detected in the most tested cell lines at different expression levels by the two independent antibodies.
KO validation (Figure 6): Anti-IRAK4 antibody (3125) specificity was further verified by IRAK4 knockout and mutant mice. IRAK4 signal in the macrophages of IRAK KO mice and mutant mice was disrupted as compared to wild type mice.
Regulated expression validation (Figure 7): IRAK4 expression detected by anit-IRAK4 antibodies (3125) was reduced with CSK-4 treatment, which was rescued by proteasome inhibitors.
KD validation (Figure 8): Anti-IRAK4 antibody (3125) specificity was further verified by IRAK4 knockdown. IRAK4 signal was disrupted in HEK293T cells transfected with IRAK4 siRNAs.
- ISOFORMS: Human IRAK4 has 2 isoforms, including isoform 1 (460aa, 52kD) and isoform 2 (336aa, 38kD). Mouse IRAK4 has one isoform (459aa, 51kD) and Rat IRAK4 also has one isoform (461aa, 51kD). 3125 can detect human isoforms as well as mouse and rat IRAK4.

Background
- IRAK-4 Antibody: Interleukin-1 (IL-1) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces cellular responses through IL-1 receptor (IL-1R) and Toll-like receptors (TLR). IL-1R-associated kinases (IRAK, IRAK2, and IRAK-M) regulate the activation of NF-κB and MAP kinase (MAPK) by IL-1R/TLR. A novel member in the IRAK/Pelle family was recently identified and designated IRAK-4. Overexpression of IRAK-4 activates NF-κB and MAPK pathways. IRAK-4 interacts with and phosphorylates IRAK-1. IRAK-4-deficient animals are completely resistant to the challenge with LPS. Animals and humans lacking IRAK-4 are impaired in their responses to viral and bacterial challenges. Members in IRAK/Pelle family play a central role in IL-1R/TLR mediated inflammatory responses and in innate immunity.
