Product details

Human Androgen Receptor is a matched pair of unconjugated recombinant rabbit monoclonal capture and detection antibodies used to quantify Human Androgen Receptor in sandwich ELISAs and many other pair-based applications.

Patented technology
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

The pair can be used in variety of assays and platforms including but not limited to:

  • Sandwich ELISA
  • FRET/TR-FRET/HTRF
  • Meso Scale Discovery® (MSD®)
  • Bead-based assays
  • AlphaLISA®/AlphaScreen®
  • DELFIA® immunoassays
  • Simoa® and Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) immunoassays
  • Multiplex

Our antibody pairs are supplied in a carrier-free format that is conjugation-ready:

  • Buffer free of BSA, sodium azide, and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency.
  • Concentration of ~1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method.

We can label antibodies for you: get in touch today to discuss how we can help accelerate your assay development with custom conjugation services.

Pairs are screened in biological samples, including plasma and serum, to ensure specificity in complex samples.

Please note:

The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization in sandwich ELISA. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type.

The range provided for this antibody pair is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data using recombinant protein. Performance and range of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay, including standard protein selection.

We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibodies in other assays.

Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

The androgen receptor (AR) also known as NR3C4 functions mechanically as a type of nuclear receptor that is activated by binding androgens including testosterone and dihydrotestosterone. The AR has a molecular weight of approximately 110 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues notably in the prostate skeletal muscle and certain areas of the brain. Within cells AR is usually located in the cytoplasm when unbound and translocates to the nucleus upon activation by its ligands.
Biological function summary

AR interacts with androgen hormones to regulate gene expression. It forms a complex with coactivators and corepressors to modulate transcription of target genes involved in male sexual development and reproductive function. AR plays an important role in the development and maintenance of male characteristics and reproductive activity. Its expression impacts cellular processes such as proliferation differentiation and apoptosis.

Pathways

AR is intricately involved in the androgen signaling pathway which affects the regulation of genes related to male sexual characteristics. It also plays a part in the PI3K/Akt pathway influencing cell growth and survival. The AR pathway interacts with proteins such as estrogen receptors to mediate cross-talk between hormonal pathways highlighting its broad biological impacts.

AR has a significant connection to prostate cancer where it drives tumor growth and progression. Mutations and overexpression of the androgen receptor are often observed in prostate cancer cells. Another condition linked to AR is androgen insensitivity syndrome where mutations in the AR gene result in partial or complete inability of cells to respond to androgenic hormones. In these conditions AR antagonists like bicalutamide are often used as treatment inhibiting the receptor's activity to manage disease progression.

Target data

Steroid hormone receptors are ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate eukaryotic gene expression and affect cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues (PubMed : 19022849). Transcription factor activity is modulated by bound coactivator and corepressor proteins like ZBTB7A that recruits NCOR1 and NCOR2 to the androgen response elements/ARE on target genes, negatively regulating androgen receptor signaling and androgen-induced cell proliferation (PubMed : 20812024). Transcription activation is also down-regulated by NR0B2. Activated, but not phosphorylated, by HIPK3 and ZIPK/DAPK3.. Isoform 3. Lacks the C-terminal ligand-binding domain and may therefore constitutively activate the transcription of a specific set of genes independently of steroid hormones.. Isoform 4. Lacks the C-terminal ligand-binding domain and may therefore constitutively activate the transcription of a specific set of genes independently of steroid hormones.
