W16064A_PURE_IRF7_Antibody_041117
Total cell lysates (15µg protein) from non-treated and recombinant mouse IFN-α treated (100nM, 24h) EL-4 cells were resolved by 4-20% Tris-glycine gel electrophoresis, transferred to nitrocellulose, and probed with 2µg/mL purified anti-IRF7 antibody (clone W16064A) antibody (upper) or loading control GAPDH (clone Poly6314) antibody (lower) . Proteins were visualized by chemiluminescence detection using a goat anti-rat-IgG secondary antibody conjugated to HRP for clone W16064A, and a donkey anti-rabbit IgG Antibody conjugated to HRP for GAPDH. Lane M is the MW ladder.

Description

IRF-7 is a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor family that plays key regulatory roles in innate immunity. Upon virus infection, IRF-7 forms a complex with MyD88 and TRAF6 when stimulated by toll-like receptors TLR7, TLR8, and TLR9, which in turn results in nuclear translocation and induction of interferon gene expression. IRF-7 gene expression is upregulated by the stimulation of interferon through the Jak-STAT signaling pathway, which forms a positive feedback loop. The protein level of IRF-7 after activation is then downregulated by the ubiquitin-proteasome system to avoid excessive production of interferons that may cause damage to the host. Virus induced type I interferon expression was completely abrogated in IRF-7 knockout mice, suggesting that IRF-7 is critical for interferon mediated host defense during virus infection.
