Androgen Receptor V7 Antibody (DHTR.V7/9394R) [CoraFluor™ 1] Summary

• Description: CoraFluor(TM) 1 is a high performance terbium-based TR-FRET (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) or TRF (Time-Resolved Fluorescence) donor for high throughput assay development. CoraFluor(IM) 1 absorbs UV light at approximately 340 nm, and emits at approximately 490 nm, 545 nm, 585 nm and 620 nm. It is compatible with common acceptor dyes that absorb at the emission wavelengths of CoraFluor(TM) 1. CoraFluor(TM) 1 can be used for the development of robust and scalable TR-FRET binding assays such as target engagement, ternary complex, protein-protein interaction and protein quantification assays.
• Additional Information: Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody
• Immunogen: Recombinant fragment (around aa600-920) of human Androgen Receptor-protein (Androgen Receptor-V7 specific) (exact sequence is proprietary)
• Localization: Nucleus.
• Specificity: AR V7 belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. It contains the nuclear receptor DNA binding domain. Steroid hormone receptors are ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate the expression of eukaryotic genes affecting cell proliferation and differentiation in target tissues. The activity of transcription factors is regulated by binding co-activators and co-repressors. This target is a splice variant of the androgen receptor that lacks the C-terminal androgen-binding site. AR-V7 plays an important role in the occurrence, development and drug resistance of prostate cancer.

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 (SBMA, also known as Kennedy's disease). Mutations in this gene are also associated with complete androgen insensitivity (CAIS). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
