Anti-MyD88 / Myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. Myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYD88 gene. MyD88 is a key downstream adapter for most Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and interleukin-1 receptors(IL1Rs). It a cytosolic adapter protein that plays a central role in the innate and adaptive immune response. This protein functions as an essential signal transducer in the interleukin-1 andToll-like receptorsignaling pathways. Qverexpression causes an increase in the level of transcription from the interleukin-8 promoter. The C-terminal domain of the protein has significant sequence similarity to the cytoplasmic domain of IL1RAP. Inhibiting the IL1R-MyD88 pathway in vivo could block the damage from acute inflammation that occurs in response to sterile cell death, and do so in a way that might not compromise tissue repair or host defense against pathogens.
