Application Notes


Validated Applications:
WB: 1 - 2 µg/ml dilution

For optimal results, primary antibody incubations should be performed at room temperature. The addition of 0.1% Tween 20 to all Blotto solutions may also reduce background. Individual optimization may be required.

Immunogen

This TRAF2 antibody was raised against a fusion protein corresponding to amino acid residues 215 to 222 of human TRAF2.

Buffer

PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Sodium azide is highly toxic.

Background

TRAF2 (TNF receptor-associated factor 2, TRAP) directly interacts with TNF receptors, and forms a heterodimeric complex with TRAF1. This protein is required for TNF-alpha-mediated activation of MAPK8/JNK and NFκB (NFκB p65 and NFκB p50). The protein complex formed by TRAF2 and TRAF1 interact with the inhibitor-of-apoptosis proteins (Livin/ML-IAP for example), and function as a mediator of the anti-apoptotic signals from TNF receptors. TRAF2 interaction with TRADD, a TNF receptor associated apoptotic signal transducer, ensures the recruitment of IAPs for the direct inhibition of caspase activation (Caspase-3, Caspase-7, Caspase-8, Caspase-9 and Caspase-14). BIRC2/c-IAP1, an apoptosis inhibitor possessing ubiquitin ligase activity, can unbiquitinate and induce the degradation of this protein, and thus potentiate TNF-induced apoptosis.

Positive Control

Active Motif's HeLa nuclear extract (Catalog No. 36010) can be used as a positive control for TRAF2 antibody.

Storage

Some products may be shipped at room temperature. This will not affect their stability or performance. Upon receipt, unconjugated antibodies may be stored at -20°C for up to 2 years. Fluorophore- & enzyme-conjugated antibodies should be stored at 4°C. Fluorophore-conjugated antibodies should be protected from light. Keep reagents on ice when not in storage; to avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, we recommend aliquoting items that will be stored frozen into single-use fractions prior to freezing.

Guarantee

This product is guaranteed for 6 months from date of receipt.
