MyD88 antibody targets Myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88, encoded by the MYD88 gene. Myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 is a cytoplasmic adaptor protein that plays a central role in innate immune signaling. It functions as a key mediator downstream of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) family members, linking pathogen recognition to activation of inflammatory signaling cascades. MyD88 is considered a core component of host defense mechanisms that initiate immune responses to microbial infection.
Functionally, Myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 mediates signal transduction by recruiting and organizing downstream kinases, including IRAK family members, through its conserved death domain and Toll-interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain. This assembly promotes activation of NF-kappaB and MAPK pathways, leading to transcription of pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and immune regulatory genes. A MyD88 antibody supports studies focused on innate immune signaling, receptor-adaptor interactions, and inflammatory pathway regulation.
MYD88 is widely expressed in immune-related cells such as monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and B lymphocytes, although expression can also be detected in non-immune tissues. Subcellular localization is primarily cytoplasmic, with recruitment to receptor complexes at membranes upon receptor engagement. Localization and signaling output are therefore dynamic and depend on receptor activation state and cellular context rather than constitutive enzymatic activity.
From a disease relevance perspective, altered MyD88 signaling has been implicated in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, as well as hematologic malignancies. Gain-of-function mutations in MYD88 have been extensively studied in B-cell lymphomas, where constitutive activation of downstream signaling promotes cell survival and proliferation. At the molecular level, Myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 functions as a non-enzymatic adaptor, relying on protein-protein interactions to transmit immune signals. MyD88 antibody reagents support research applications examining innate immunity, cytokine signaling, and immune-driven disease mechanisms, with NSJ Bioreagents providing reagents intended for research use.
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting points. Titration of the MyD88 antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
An amino acid sequence from the middle region of human MyD88 (FVQEMIRQLEQTNYR) was used as the immunogen for this MyD88 antibody.
After reconstitution, the MyD88 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
