NOD2 Antibody (2D9) [DyLight 405]

DyLight (R) is a trademark of Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. and its subsidiaries.

The NOD2 (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain containing 2) protein is expressed in the antigen-presenting cells (monocytes and macrophages) and in intestinal Paneth cells, keratinocytes, T cells, NK cells, and CD34+ stem cells. Alongwith Apaf-1 and CIITA, NOD2 belongs to NLR/NOD leucine-rich repeat containing protein family. NOD2 generally localizes to the cytoplasm from where it translocates to cell membranes, a mechanism suggested as important for its functionality. After interacting with CARD-CARD, NOD2 may bind/activate RIP2/RICK and this active NOD2:RIP2 complex then stimulates MAPK (JNK, ERK, p38), NF-kB, autophagy and antigen presentation. NOD2 has an ability to senses the presence of MDP (muramyl dipeptide), a breakdown product of peptidoglycan found in bacteria, and after recognition of intracellular bacteria, NOD2 pathway execute directing the secretion of antimicrobial peptides and cytokines/chemokines to induce innate immune clearance of the pathogen as well as to tailor the adaptive immune system to help fight the bacterial infection. Defects in NOD2 are the cause of Blau syndrome (BS), susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease type 1 (IBD1) and sarcoidosis early-onset (EOS).
