Applications: Study enzyme kinetics and screen small molecular inhibitors for drug discovery and high throughput (HTS) applications.
Background: IRAKs (interleukin receptor associated kinases) are a family of Serine/Threonine kinases that induce a protective acute inflammation response, as well as an adaptive immune response in the presence of pathogens. They are associated with Toll-like receptors in immune cells and transduce an intracellular signaling cascade that results in the transcription of genes involved in inflammation. Four IRAK-like molecules have been identified: IRAK1, IRAK2, IRAK4 and IRAKM. IRAK1 and IRAK4 are active kinases, while IRAK2 and IRAKM are inactive. All four kinases mediate activation of NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa B), a regulator of innate immunity through signaling pathways that link pathogenic and cellular danger signals in response to invading pathogens. IRAKs have the potential to be used as therapeutic targets due to their highly functional role as mediators of the immune response.
Contraindications: The final concentration of DMSO in the assay should not exceed 1%.
Description: The IRAK1 Kinase Assay Kit is designed to measure IRAK1 kinase activity for screening and profiling applications using ADP-Glo® as a detection reagent.
