General description

TAK1 binding protein 1 (TAB1) is thought to activate TAK1 MAPKKK in transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling. TAB1 can also associate with TAK1 to form a unique MAPKKK complex that is thought to activate AP-1 and the NFkappaB signaling pathways. Through conformational changes, TAB1 is also thought to induce p38alpha autophosphorylation. It has been linked to both IL-1alpha and TNFalpha signaling and therefore may also be involved in the inflammatory response. Recent research has found that the TAK1-TAB1 complex may have anti-inflammatory effects by aiding stercurensin in regulating the NFκB-dependent inflammatory pathways.

Immunogen

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.

Physical form

Affinity purified

Purified rabbit polyclonal in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl with 0.05% sodium azide.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in L6 cell lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: 1 µg/mL of this antibody detected TAB1 on 10 µg of L6 cell lysate.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes TAB1 phosphorylated at Thr431.
