Product description

AR rabbit pAb is a research-use antibody from ELK Biotechnology for studying Androgen Receptor in WB, IHC, IF, ELISA workflows with listed reactivity for Human, Mouse, Rat. Specifications and supporting documents below should be reviewed when planning the experiment.

Background

The androgen receptor gene is more than 90 kb long and codes for a protein that has 3 major functional domains: the N-terminal domain, DNA-binding domain, and androgen-binding domain. The protein functions as a steroid-hormone activated transcription factor. Upon binding the hormone ligand, the receptor dissociates from accessory proteins, translocates into the nucleus, dimerizes, and then stimulates transcription of androgen responsive genes. This gene contains 2 polymorphic trinucleotide repeat segments that encode polyglutamine and polyglycine tracts in the N-terminal transactivation domain of its protein. Expansion of the polyglutamine tract from the normal 9-34 repeats to the pathogenic 38-62 repeats causes spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (Kennedy disease). Mutations in this gene are also associated with complete androgen insensitivity (CAIS). Two alternatively spliced variants encoding distinct isoform

Research target context

ARandrogen receptor

View target guide

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.
