Anti-IκBα antibody produced in rabbit

Anti-IκBα antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting.

Specific phosphorylation of the inhibitor IκBα at Ser32 and Ser36, its ubiquitination and subsequent proteolytic degradation is necessary for the activation of NF-κ-B. Polymorphism in this gene is linked to recurrent acute rejections in liver transplant recipients. Mutations in this gene have been linked to autosomal dominant anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and T cell immunodeficiency.

The gene NFKBIA (nuclear factor of κ light polypeptide gene enhancer B-cells inhibitor-α) encodes the α member of the NF-κ-B inhibitor family IκB, which also consists of IκBβ and IκBε. NFKBIA is also referred to as IκBα. It is the strongest inhibitor of nuclear NF-κB activity among these members. Specific phosphorylation of the inhibitor IκBα at Ser32 and Ser36, its ubiubiquitination and subsequent proteolytic degradation is necessary for the activation of NF-κ-B. It is localized to the cytosol, where it retains NF-κB. Polymorphism in this gene is linked to recurrent acute rejections in liver transplant recipients. Mutations in this gene have been linked to autosomal dominant anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and T cell immunodeficiency. The gene NFKBIA is mapped to human chromosome 14q13.
