Brief Description   A TLR-ubiquitinating enzyme
Specific Description   Activation of NF-?B as a result of Toll-like receptor (TLR) and IL-1 receptor signaling is a major component of innate immune responses (reviewed in 1). Signals from these receptors are relayed by a number of adapter molecules such as TRIF, TIRAP, and MyD88 (2). Several regulatory mechanisms exist to control TLR signal transduction, including the inhibition of TLR expression and signaling by molecules such as ST2 and SIGIRR (3,4). Another mechanism is by the ubi-quitinization of selected TLRs by TRIAD3A, an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase (5). TRIAD3A is a RING finger protein that can bind to TLR4 and TLR9, and to a lesser extent TLR3 and TLR5, catalyzing the ubiquitization of these molecules. Overexpression of TRIAD3A promoted the nearly complete degradation of TLR4 and TLR9; this reduction was reflected in the decreased signal-specific activation by ligands specific for these TLRs. Conversely, depletion of TRIAD3A resulted in enhanced TLR activation (5).
Storage   TRIAD3A 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.
