Product Introduction:

vPair^TM antibodies represent a pair of fully characterized antibodies that recognize two different regions of a target protein. The product is developed by Abiocode to address whether the signal observed truly represents the protein of interest, an often encountered issue in antibody-based assays. The use of a pair of fully characterized vPair^TM antibodies in the same assay can validate signal specificity since vPair^TM antibodies recognize two independent epitopes of the same protein. Different sets of vPair^TM antibodies are developed at Abiocode to work with specific applications, including antibody arrays, Western blot, IP-Western, ChIP, IHC, and FACS.

Background:

TIR domain-containing adapter molecule 2 (TICAM2) functions as sorting adapter in LPS-TLR4 signaling to regulate the MYD88-independent pathway during the innate immune response to LPS. TICAM2 physically bridges TLR4 and TICAM1 and functionally transmits LPS-TRL4 signal to TICAM1; signaling is proposed to occur in early endosomes after endocytosis of TLR4. TICAM2 may also be involved in IL1-triggered NF-kappa-B activation, functioning upstream of IRAK1, IRAK2, TRAF6, and IKBKB; however, reports are controversial. Two isoforms of TICAM2 have been identified: isoform 1 (also known as TRAM) and isoform 2 (also known as TAG; TRAM adaptor with GOLD domain), which differ at their N-terminus. Isoform 2 is proposed to inhibit LPS-TLR4 signaling at the late endosome by interaction with isoform 1; thereby disrupting the association of isoform 1 with TICAM1.

Other Names:

TIR domain-containing adapter molecule 2, TICAM-2, Putative NF-kappa-B-activating protein 502,

Source and Purity:

Rabbit polyclonal antibodies were produced by immunizing animals with GST-fusion proteins containing either the middle [TICAM2 (M) (R3200-2)] or the C-terminal [TICAM2 (C) (R3200-3)] region of human TICAM2. Antibodies were purified by affinity purification using immunogen.
