ABMIUM target intelligence
androgen receptor
Androgen receptor (AR; NR3C4) is a ligand-activated nuclear steroid receptor and transcription factor that converts androgen signals into gene-regulatory programmes. This catalogue-backed ABMIUM record links human AR (NCBI Gene 367; UniProt P10275) to research reagents.

Androgen receptor (AR) binds androgens such as testosterone and dihydrotestosterone, undergoes conformational activation and nuclear translocation, dimerises and binds androgen-response elements to regulate transcription. It controls androgen-responsive gene programmes involved in cellular growth, differentiation and tissue-specific physiology.
AR is studied in androgen signalling, steroid-receptor transcription, nuclear-receptor co-regulation and hormone-responsive cell biology. Use the catalogue links below to assess species, assay format, application and product-level validation for each ABMIUM reagent.
