IRF5 Recombinant Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody [SN201-05]

IRF5 is a member of the interferon regulatory factor (IRF) family, a group of transcription factors with diverse roles, including virus-mediated activation of interferon, and modulation of cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, and immune system activity. Members of the IRF family are characterized by a conserved N-terminal DNA-binding domain containing tryptophan (W) repeats. Alternative splice variants encoding different isoforms exist. The regulatory and repression regions of the IRF family are mainly located in the C-terminal of the IRF.A 2020 study showed that an adaptor protein named TASL play an important regulatory role in IRF5 activation by being phosphorylated at the pLxIS motif,[8] drawing a similar analogy to the IRF3 activation pathway through the adaptor proteins MAVS, STING and TRIF.[
