Supplier Data

Flow Cytometry - FITC Anti-DR4 antibody [DR-4-02] (AB59047)

Anti-Hu CD261 FITC antibody (concentration in sample 3 μg/ml, red-filled histogram) binds specifically to CD261 on surface of CD261 transfected HEK-293 cells (upper panel), but not to surface of non-transfected HEK-293 cells (lower panel). Level of non-specific binding was assessed using Mouse IgG1 isotype control FITC antibody under same conditions (concentration in sample 3 μg/ml, black-dashed histogram).

Product details

Do not use after expiration date stamped on vial label. Short term exposure to room temperature should not affect the quality of the reagent. However, if reagent is stored under any conditions other than those specified, the conditions must be verified by the user.

Soluble antibody blocks DR4 receptor against TRAIL induced apoptosis. Plastic immobilized antibody induces apoptosis in sensitive cells.

The purified antibody is conjugated with Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions. The reagent is free of unconjugated FITC and adjusted for direct use. No reconstitution is necessary.

Supplementary information

DR4 also known as TRAIL-R1 is a receptor with a molecular weight of approximately 60 kDa. It is part of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily. DR4 is widely expressed in various types of tissues such as the liver spleen thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes. It functions mechanically by binding to its ligand TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) which initiates signaling cascades that lead to apoptosis or programmed cell death.
Biological function summary

The death receptor 4 plays an important role in mediating cell apoptosis. Upon ligand binding DR4 interacts with the adapter molecule FADD (FAS-associated protein with death domain) facilitating the formation of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC). This complex recruits and activates caspase-8 which eventually leads to the activation of the downstream effector caspases driving the cell towards apoptosis. DR4 operates as a significant component of the extrinsic pathway of apoptosis a process important for maintaining cellular homeostasis and eliminating harmful cells.

Pathways

DR4 functions critically within the extrinsic apoptotic pathway. This pathway involves other death receptors such as DR5 which also binds TRAIL similarly leading to apoptosis through DISC formation and caspase activation. The extrinsic pathway interconnects with the intrinsic pathway via the mitochondria with proteins like Bid acting as a bridge between them. The engagement of these pathways highlights DR4's importance in regulatory mechanisms of cell death tightly controlling cellular proliferation and survival.

DR4 plays a significant role in cancer and autoimmune diseases. Alterations in DR4 expression or function can lead to evasion of apoptosis by cancer cells contributing to tumor progression. The defective apoptotic signaling via DR4 is also linked to autoimmune disorders where insufficient apoptosis may allow for the survival of autoreactive immune cells. In both scenarios DR4's involvement usually associates with its counterpart DR5 as they share similar ligand-binding properties and signal transduction mechanisms in diseased states.

Target data

Receptor for the cytotoxic ligand TNFSF10/TRAIL (PubMed : 26457518, PubMed : 38532423). The adapter molecule FADD recruits caspase-8 to the activated receptor. The resulting death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) performs caspase-8 proteolytic activation which initiates the subsequent cascade of caspases (aspartate-specific cysteine proteases) mediating apoptosis (PubMed : 19090789). Promotes the activation of NF-kappa-B (PubMed : 9430227).
