IRAK1 Antibody

Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the IRAK1 gene. By radiation hybrid analysis, this gene is mapped to chromosome Xq28. Serine/threonine-protein kinases play a critical roles in initiating innate immune response against foreign pathogens. This gene is involved in Toll-like receptor (TLR) and IL-1R signaling pathways. It encodes one of two putative serine/threonine kinases that become associated with the interleukin-1 receptor (IL1R) upon stimulation. This gene is partially responsible for IL1-induced upregulation of the transcription factor NF-kappa B.
