Detection of Human IRF8 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of human liver and kidney tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human IRF8 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5117) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for IRF8 at approximately 50 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.

Immunohistochemistry

IRF8 in Human Lymphoma. IRF8 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human lymphoma using 5 µg/mL Sheep Anti-Human IRF8 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5117) overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained with the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

Background: IRF8

IRF8 (interferon regulatory factor 8; also ICSBP) is a 50 kDa member of the IRF family of proteins. It is expressed in myeloid, dendritic and B cells and interacts with PU.1 to regulate the expression of TLR4, IL-18, IL-12p35, and PTPN13, a Fas-associated phosphatase that blocks Fas-induced apoptosis. Human IRF8 is 426 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains an N-terminal DNA-binding basic region (aa 9-110) and at least one regulatory phosphorylation site at Tyr95. Over aa 255-426, human IRF8 shares 90% and 88% aa sequence identity with canine and mouse IRF8, respectively.
