Androgen Receptor (AR, AIS, Androgen receptor, DHTR, Dihydrotestosterone Receptor, HUMARA, HYSP1, KD, NR3C4, Nuclear receptor subfamily 3 Group C Member 4, SBMA, SMAX1, TFM)

The Androgen Receptor (Androgen R) is a 90kD steroid hormone receptor that is critical for the development and function of the male reproductive system. Androgen R binding to testosterone or 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) triggers receptor dimerization followed by translocation to the nucleus where it promotes transcription of androgen responsive genes. Multiple polymorphisms in Androgen R are linked to the development of prostate cancer. The ligand binding domain of human Androgen R (aa661-920) shares 100% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Androgen R.\n\nApplications: \nSuitable for use in ELISA and Flow Cytometry. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nFlow Cytometry: 25ug/ml, 10ul labels 1-2.5 x 10e5 cells in a total reaction volume < 200ul.\nDirect ELISA: 0.5-1ug/ml. The detection limit is ~1ng/well.\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nHybridoma: \nMouse myeloma cells with B cells obtained from a mouse immunized with purified, E. coli-derived, recombinant human Androgen R (aa661-920).\n\nStorage and Stability:\nLyophilized powder may be stored at -20 degrees C.
