• Species Reactivity

  Human

• Specificity

  Detects human IkB-epsilon in direct ELISAs. In direct ELISAs, approximately 40% cross-reactivity with recombinant mouse IkB-epsilon is observed and less than 1% cross-reactivity with recombinant human IkB-beta is observed.

Background: IkB-epsilon

NF kappa B inhibitor epsilon (IkB-epsilon ) inhibits the NF kappa B complex by binding and sequestering it in the cytoplasm. Upon stimulation, IkB-epsilon is phosphorylated on serine residues marking it for degradation by the ubiquitin pathway. Following IkB-epsilon degradation, the NF kappa B complex is able to translocate to the nucleus and activate transcription.
