TICAM2 blocking peptide
TICAM2 Antibody
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring transmembrane emp24 protein transport domain containing 7 (TMED7) and toll-like receptor adaptor molecule 2 (TICAM2) genes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, one of which encodes a fusion protein that shares sequence identity with the products of each individual gene. This fusion product functions to negatively regulate the adaptor MyD88-independent toll-like receptor 4 pathway. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
Uniprot Description
TICAM2: a toll-like receptor adapter that participates in induction of type 1 interferons. Transiently phosphorylated on serine-16 during LPS/Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling. Activated TLR4 associates with four adapter proteins, MyD88, TIRAP, TICAM-1 (Trif), and TICAM-2.
