Androgen R/NR3C4 Antibody (AR441) - Azide and BSA Free Summary

• Immunogen: A synthetic peptide, aa 299-315, (STEDTAEYSPFKGGYTK) of human AR.
• Localization: Nuclear
• Marker: Marker of Androgen Dependence
• Specificity: Recognizes a protein of 110kDa, which is identified as androgen receptor (AR). It reacts with full length, and the newly described A form of the receptor. It does not cross react with estrogen, progesterone, or glucocorticoid receptors. The expression of AR is reportedly inversely correlated with histologic grade i.e. well differentiated prostate tumors show higher expression than the poorly differentiated tumors. In prostate cancer, AR has been proposed, as a marker of hormone-responsiveness and thus it may be useful in identifying patients likely to benefit from anti-androgen therapy. Anti-androgen receptor has been useful clinically in differentiating morpheaform basal cell carcinoma (mBCC) from desmoplastic trichoepithelioma (DTE) in the skin.This MAb is superb for staining of formalin/paraffin tissues.
• Isotype: IgG1 Kappa
• Clonality: Monoclonal
• Host: Mouse
• Gene: AR
• Purity: Protein A or G purified

Applications/Dilutions

• Dilutions:
  • Flow Cytometry 0.5 - 1 ug/million cells in 0.1 ml
  • Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin 0.5 - 1.0 ug/ml
  • CyTOF-ready
  • Immunofluorescence 0.5 - 1.0 ug/ml
• Application Notes: Hu-chromosome location: Xq12 Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin 0.5 - 1 ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT; Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 10 - 20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
• Theoretical MW: 110 kDa.
  Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.
