NOD1 Agonist - D-gamma-Glu-mDAP
γ-D-Glu-mDAP (iE-DAP) is a dipeptide present in the peptidoglycan (PGN) of all Gram-negative and certain Gram-positive bacteria. iE-DAP is the minimal motif recognized by the intracellular receptor NOD1.
Recognition of iE-DAP by NOD1 induces NF-κB activation and the production of inflammatory cytokines. iE-DAP provided by InvivoGen is chemically synthesized and tested using HEK-Blue™ NOD1.
Note: iE-DAP is a mixture of γ-D-Glu-D-mDAP and γ-D-Glu-L-mDAP.

Description
γ-D-Glu-mDAP (iE-DAP) is a dipeptide present in the peptidoglycan (PGN) of a subset of bacteria that include Gram-negative bacilli and particular Gram-positive bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis and Listeria monocytogenes [1].
iE-DAP is the minimal motif recognized by NOD1 (CARD4), an intracellular sensor expressed in multiple tissues including intestinal epithelia cells. Recognition of iE-DAP by NOD1 induces a signaling cascade involving the serine/threonine RIP2 (RICK, CARDIAK) kinase which interacts with IKK leading to the activation of NF-κB and the production of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6 [2].
iE-DAP provided by InvivoGen is chemically synthesized and tested using HEK-Blue™ NOD1.
Note: iE-DAP is a mixture of γ-D-Glu-D-mDAP and γ-D-Glu- L-mDAP.
