For maximum recovery please spin prior to use. Unless noted below, aliquots of the 5 µg, 10 µg and 20 µg sizes of kinase are not recommended as materials can be used in original packaging until exhausted. For larger sizes, the number of freeze/thaws may be reduced by preparing aliquots; aliquots below 20 µL are not recommended. Please never store a kinase diluted. If properly stored at -80C, this product is guaranteed for 6 months from date of purchase.
Protein Form: Recombinant, Catalytic
IL-1 receptor associated kinases (IRAKs) are serine/threonine kinases involved in signaling via Toll/IL-1 pathways. It is rapidly recruited by MYD88 to the receptor-signaling complex upon TLR activation. IRAK's association with MYD88 leads to IRAK1 phosphorylation by IRAK4 and subsequent autophosphorylation and kinase activation. Alternatively, IRAK1 can phosphorylate TIRAP to promote its ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. IRAK1 also phosphorylates the interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) to induce its activation and translocation to the nucleus. This results in the transcriptional activiation of type I IFN genes, which drive the cell in an antiviral state.
