TRAF7 (TNF Receptor Associated Factor 7, TNF Receptor-associated Factor 7, TRAF 7, TRAF-7, DKFZp586I021, E3 Ubiquitin Protein Ligase TRAF7, MGC7807, Ring Finger and WD Repeat Domain 1, RFWD1, RING Finger Protein 119, RNF119)

TRAFs are signal transducers for members of TNFR superfamily. These are critically involved in activation of MAP3K family members involved in NF-kappaB and JNK activation and apoptosis. TRAF7, a novel 670aa protein, is a human homolog of mouse Traf7 and consists of an N-terminal RING finger domain, central TRAF domain, a coiled-coil motif and 7 WD40 repeats at the C-terminus. It has E3-ubiquitin ligase activity for self-ubiquitination. TRAF7 specifically interacts with MEKK3 and mediates MEKK3-induced AP1 and CHOP activation and induces apoptosis through Caspase-independent pathways.It is a multifunctional protein involved in sumoylation and negative regulation of c-Myb, thereby regulating proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic cells.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nELISA: 0.1-1ug/ml\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\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.
