General description

TNF receptor-associated factor 4 (TRAF4), also known as Cysteine-rich domain associated with RING and Traf domains protein 1 (CART1), Metastatic lymph node gene 62 protein (MLN 62), and RING finger protein 83 (RNF83), is an adapter protein and signal transducer that links members of the TNF family to different signaling pathways. As such TRAF4 plays a role in the activation of the NF-kappa- and JNK signaling as well as a player in apoptosis and cell survival pathways. In development, TRAF4 is necessary for proper skeleton development and lung development. TRAF4 is localized in the perinuclear region of the cell as well as other locations including cell junctions where it is associated with various cytoskeletal elements. TRAF4 is expressed in the epithelial cells of thymus, respiratory tract, salivary gland, and esophagus. TRAF4 expression is regulated via the ubiquitin proteasome system and is a polyubiquitin target protein.

Specificity

This antibody detects TRAF4 and is cited in publications as both clone 5MLN-2H1 and clone 2H1.

Immunogen
