NOD1 (CARD4, Nucleotide-binding Oligomerization Domain-containing Protein 1, Caspase Recruitment Domain-containing Protein 4)

NOD1 is a member of the NOD (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain) family, a group of proteins that are involved in innate immune defense. NOD1 contains an N-terminal caspase recruitment domain (CARD), a centrally located nucleotide-binding domain (NBD), and ten tandem leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) in its C-terminus. The CARD is involved in apoptotic signaling, and NOD1 activates caspase-9 and NF-kB. LRRs participate in protein-protein interactions, and mutations in the NBD may affect the process of oligomerization and subsequent function of the LRR domain. This protein is an intracellular pattern-recognition receptor (PRR) that initiates inflammation in response to a subset of bacteria through the detection of bacterial diaminopimelic acid.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nWestern Blot: 1ug/ml\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nPositive Control:\nEL4 Cell Lysate\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
