IL12R- β2 is a Type I cytokine receptor and contains the WXXW (WSNWS) sequence that often predicates the post-translational addition of mannose to a tryptophan residue via a carbon-carbon bond. This study will stimulate expression of IL12R- β2 in RAW 264.7 Macrophage-Like Cells by shutting down the extracellular signal kinase (ERK) pathway and introducing inflammatory agents lipopolysaccharide and CpG DNA in order to collect a concentrated sample of IL12R- β2. These samples will be analyzed for the presence of C-mannosyltryptophan residue
