Protocol

Specificity / Sensitivity

IRG1 Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total IRG1 protein.

Species Reactivity:

Mouse

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of mouse IRG1 protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Background

IRG1 (Immune-responsive gene 1) is one of the most up-regulated genes in macrophages under proinflammatory conditions (1). It is also highly expressed in the pregnant uterus during implantation (2,3). IRG1 is a cis-aconitate decarboxylase that produces itaconic acid by decarboxylating cis-aconitic acid, an intermediate of the tricarboxylic acid cycle (4). Itaconic acid is an endogenous inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase, linking macrophage metabolic rewiring and regulation of inflammation (5,6).
