Description | Anti-RIG-1 Antibody is DEAE purified. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with RIG-1 with Human, Rat and Mouse based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Cross-reactivity with RIG-1 from other sources has not been determined. RIG-1 antibody detects the human RIG-1 protein. The innate immune system detects viral infection by recognizing various viral components and triggers antiviral responses. Like the toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), the cytoplasmic helicase retinoic acid inducible gene protein 1 (RIG-1) recognizes double-stranded (ds) RNA, a molecular pattern associated with viral infection. Unlike TLR3 however, RIG-1 activates the kinases TBK1 and IKKε through the adaptor protein IPS-1. These kinases then phosphorylate the transcription factors IRF-3 and IRF-7 which are essential for the expression of type-I interferons. RIG-1 is required for the production of interferons in response to RNA viruses including paramyxoviruses, influenza virus, and Japanese encephalitis virus. Anti-RIG-1 antibodies are ideal for investigators involved in infectious disease research. |
Immunogen | RIG-1 Antibody was produced from whole rabbit serum prepared by repeated immunizations with human GST-tagged RIG-1 protein. |
