TRAM/TICAM2 Antibody

Western blot shows lysates of Raji human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line, C2C12 mouse myoblast cell line, and NRK rat normal kidney cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Human/Mouse/Rat TRAM/TICAM2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4348) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for TRAM/TICAM2 at approximately 31 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted using Immunoblot Buffer Group 2.

TRAM/TICAM2 was detected in immersion fixed Raji human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line using Human/Mouse/Rat TRAM/TICAM2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4348) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red, upper panel; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue, lower panel). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Non-adherent Cells.

TRAM/TICAM2 was detected in immersion fixed C2C12 mouse myoblast cell line using Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat TRAM/TICAM2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4348) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red, upper panel; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue, lower panel). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.

Raji human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line was stained with Human/Mouse/Rat TRAM/TICAM2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4348, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # AB-108-C, open histogram), followed by Phycoerythrin-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0107). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with saponin.

C2C12 mouse myoblast cell line was stained with Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat TRAM/TICAM2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4348, filled histogram) or control antibody (Catalog # AB-108-C, open histogram), followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0108). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with saponin.

NRK rat normal kidney cell line was stained with Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat TRAM/TICAM2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4348, filled histogram) or control antibody (Catalog # AB-108-C, open histogram), followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0108).

Background

The innate and adaptive immune responses depend on systems that link cell surface surveillance receptor signals to cytoplasmic proteins such as kinases, adaptors, and transcription factors. Toll-like receptors (TLR) recognize different pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), and initiate a signaling cascades mediated by a Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain-containing adaptor proteins such as MyD88, TIRAP/MAL, and TRIF. Mouse TRIF-related adaptor molecule (TRAM), is a 232 amino acid, 26 kDa (predicted), ubiquitously expressed member of the TIR domain-containing adaptor family. TRAM, also known as TIR domain-containing adapter protein 2 (TICAM2) and TIR domain-containing protein (TIRP), contains a central Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain that is most similar to that of TRIF. TRAM plays an essential role in the MyD88-independent signaling of TLR4 by binding members of the IRAK family, ultimately leading to the activation of NF kappa B. Mouse TRAM shares 75% and 77% identity to human and rat TRAM, respectively.
