The IκB alpha (Inhibitor of κB alpha) antibody is a crucial tool for studying the NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells) signaling pathway, which regulates immune responses, inflammation, and cell survival. IκB alpha, encoded by the NFKBIA gene, acts as a primary inhibitor of NF-κB by binding to its subunits (e.g., p65/p50) in the cytoplasm, preventing their nuclear translocation and DNA-binding activity. Upon stimulation by cytokines, pathogens, or stress signals, IκB alpha undergoes phosphorylation by the IKK (IκB kinase) complex, leading to its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. This releases NF-κB, allowing it to activate target genes involved in immune and inflammatory processes.
Antibodies targeting IκB alpha are widely used to detect protein expression, phosphorylation status (e.g., at Ser32/36), and degradation dynamics via techniques like Western blot, immunofluorescence, and immunoprecipitation. These antibodies help researchers investigate dysregulated NF-κB signaling in diseases such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and chronic inflammation. Commercial IκB alpha antibodies are typically raised in rabbits or mice using epitopes from the N-terminal (phosphorylation-sensitive) or C-terminal regions. Their specificity is validated using knockout controls or siRNA-based approaches.
By enabling precise tracking of IκB alpha’s regulatory role, these antibodies contribute to understanding cellular responses to therapeutic agents, pathogen interactions, and stress-induced signaling cascades.
