Related Product Information for anti-CD284 antibody

Goat anti Human CD284 antibody recognizes the human Toll-like receptor 4, also known as CD284, hToll or TLR4. CD284 is an 839 amino acid ~96 kDa single pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed by peripheral blood leucocytes, activated T cells, monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, granulocytes and endothelial cells. CD284 plays a primary role in the activation of innate immunity (UniProt: O00206). Goat anti Human CD284 antibody recognizes an epitope within the N-terminal (NT) region of CD284, a highly conserved member of the toll-like receptor family which acts as a receptor for bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in co-operation with CD14 and MD2 (LY96), resulting in the activation of the MyD88-dependent and MyD88-independent (TRIF-dependent) signalling pathways and the production of inflammatory cytokines. LPS-activated CD284 can also induce dendritic cell maturation via TRIF-dependent signaling. Goat anti Human CD284 antibody is reported to be suitable for use in immunocytochemistry on acetone fixed cells.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family which plays a fundamental role in pathogen recognition and activation of innate immunity. TLRs are highly conserved from Drosophila to humans and share structural and functional similarities. They recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns that are expressed on infectious agents, and mediate the production of cytokines necessary for the development of effective immunity. The various TLRs exhibit different patterns of expression. This receptor has been implicated in signal transduction events induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) found in most gram-negative bacteria. Mutations in this gene have been associated with differences in LPS responsiveness. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Uniprot Description

TLR4: Cooperates with LY96 and CD14 to mediate the innate immune response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Acts via MYD88, TIRAP and TRAF6, leading to NF-kappa-B activation, cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response. Also involved in LPS- independent inflammatory responses triggered by Ni(2+). These responses require non-conserved histidines and are, therefore, species-specific. Belongs to the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptor, a multi-protein complex containing at least CD14, LY96 and TLR4. Binding to bacterial LPS leads to homodimerization. Interacts with LY96 via the extracellular domain. Interacts with MYD88 and TIRAP via their respective TIR domains. Interacts with NOX4. Interacts with CNPY3. Interacts with HSP90B1. The interaction with both CNPY3 and HSP90B1 is required for proper folding in the endoplasmic reticulum. Highly expressed in placenta, spleen and peripheral blood leukocytes. Detected in monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells and several types of T-cells. Belongs to the Toll-like receptor family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
