Description

The UT41 monoclonal antibody was generated against BaF3 cells overexpressing mouse TLR4. So far, at least twelve members of the Toll family have been identified. This family of type I transmembrane protein is characterized by an extracellular domain with leucine-rich repeats and a cytoplasmic domain with homology to the type I IL-1 receptor. Two of these receptors, TLR2 and TLR4, are pattern recognition receptors and signaling molecules in response to bacterial lipoproteins and have been implicated in innate immunity and inflammation. TLR4 physically associates with another molecule called MD-2, and together with CD14, this complex is responsible for LPS recognition and signaling. TLR4, which is approximately 100 kDa, is expressed by myeloid lineage cells.

The MTS510 monoclonal antibody co-immunoprecipitates MD-2 (~30 kDa) and TLR4 (~100 kDa), and preferentially reacts with TLR4 that is associated with MD-2. In comparison, binding of the UT41 monoclonal antibody occurs with and without formation of the TLR4/MD-2 complex . Please contact eBioscience Technical Support for further information.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This UT41 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested

This UT41 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse peritoneal exudate cells. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.5 μg per million cells in a 100 μl total staining volume. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
