Myd88 (Phospho-Tyr257) Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Disease:Defects in MYD88 are the cause of MYD88 deficiency (MYD88D) [MIM:612260]; also called recurrent pyogenic bacterial infections due to MYD88 deficiency. Patients suffer from autosomal recessive, life-threatening, often recurrent pyogenic bacterial infections, including invasive pneumococcal disease, and die between 1 and 11 months of age. Surviving patients are otherwise healthy, with normal resistance to other microbes, and their clinical status improved with age., function:Adapter protein involved in the Toll-like receptor and IL-1 receptor signaling pathway in the innate immune response. Acts via IRAK1, IRAK2 and TRAF6, leading to NF-kappa-B activation, cytokine secretion and the inflammatory response. Increases IL-8 transcription. May be involved in myeloid differentiation., similarity:Contains 1 death domain., similarity:Contains 1 TIR domain., subunit:Homodimer. Also forms heterodimers with TIRAP. Binds to TLR2, TLR4, IRAK1 and IRAK2 via their respective TIR domains. Interacts with IL1RL1., tissue specificity:Ubiquitous.
