The androgen receptor (AR), also known as NR3C4 (nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 4), is a type of nuclear receptor which is activated by binding of either of the androgenic hormones testosterone or dihydrotestosterone in the cytoplasm and then translocating into the nucleus. The androgen receptor is most closely related to the progesterone receptor, and progestins in higher dosages can block the androgen receptor. The main function of the androgen receptor is as a DNA binding transcription factor which regulates gene expression; however, the androgen receptor has other functions as well. Androgen regulated genes are critical for the development and maintenance of the male sexual phenotype.

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.
Biological function: 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.
