Brief Description   (NT) TGF-beta activated protein kinase
Specific Description   TAK1 (TGF-&betta; activated protein kinase 1) is a widely expressed enzyme originally identified as a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase (MAP3K7) (1). It has since been shown to mediate various intracellular signaling pathways, such as those induced by TGF-Β and members of the Toll-IL-1R (TIR) superfamily (2), thus acting as an intermediate in both proliferative and innate and adaptive immune responses (3). TAK1 is normally present in cells in a complex with TAK1-binding protein 1 (TAB1) and either TAB2 or TAB3 (4,5). Association with TAB1 triggers TAK1 kinase activity by inducing TAK1 autophosphorylation (6), while TAB2 and possibly TAB3 may contribute to SAPK2a/p38a-mediated feedback inhibition of TAK1 activity (5).
Storage   TAK1 antibody can be stored at 4°C, stable for one year. As with all antibodies care should be taken to avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
