Function
Ligand-activated transcription factor that enables cells to adapt to changing conditions by sensing compounds from the environment, diet, microbiome and cellular metabolism, and which plays important roles in development, immunity and cancer (PubMed:23275542, PubMed:30373764, PubMed:32818467, PubMed:7961644). Upon ligand binding, translocates into the nucleus, where it heterodimerizes with ARNT and induces transcription by binding to xenobiotic response elements (XRE) (PubMed:23275542, PubMed:30373764, PubMed:7961644). Regulates a variety of biological processes, including angiogenesis, hematopoiesis, drug and lipid metabolism, cell motility and immune modulation (PubMed:12213388). Xenobiotics can act as ligands: upon xenobiotic-binding, activates the expression of multiple phase I and II xenobiotic chemical metabolizing enzyme genes (such as the CYP1A1 gene) (PubMed:7961644). Mediates biochemical and toxic effects of halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons (PubMed:34521881, PubMed:7961644). Next to xenobiotics, natural ligands derived from plants, microbiota, and endogenous metabolism are potent AHR agonists (PubMed:18076143). Tryptophan (Trp) derivatives constitute an important class of endogenous AHR ligands (PubMed:32818467, PubMed:32866000). Acts as a negative regulator of anti-tumor immunity: indoles and kynurenic acid generated by Trp catabolism act as ligand and activate AHR, thereby promoting AHR-driven cancer cell motility and suppressing adaptive immunity (PubMed:32818467). Regulates the circadian clock by inhibiting the basal and circadian expression of the core circadian component PER1 (PubMed:28602820). Inhibits PER1 by repressing the CLOCK-BMAL1 heterodimer mediated transcriptional activation of PER1 (PubMed:28602820). The heterodimer ARNT:AHR binds to core DNA sequence 5'-TGCGTG-3' within the dioxin response element (DRE) of target gene promoters and activates their transcription (PubMed:28602820).

Detector: Anti-Aryl hydrocarbon Receptor antibody [EPR7119(N)(2)] - BSA and Azide free (Detector) ab281136, Human AHR Detector Antibody (unconjugated)
The reference range value is 78.13 - 5000 pg/mL.
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:
- - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- - Improved sensitivity and specificity
- - Long-term security of supply
- - Animal-free batch production
For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.
This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.
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 recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.
Supplementary info

- Activity summary
The Aryl hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) also known as the Ah receptor is a ligand-activated transcription factor expressed in various tissues including liver lung and skin. The AhR has a molecular mass of approximately 96 kDa. It forms a complex with the aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT) upon ligand binding. AhR can bind to several compounds including aryl azide influencing the expression of numerous genes involved in xenobiotic metabolism.
- Biological function summary
The AhR plays an important role in the regulation of detoxification enzymes such as cytochrome P450s. This receptor functions as a sensor for environmental toxins activating detoxification pathways once bound to ligands. It also contributes to the modulation of immune responses and development processes. The AhR often forms part of a larger protein complex to exert its effects on gene expression and cellular processes.
- Pathways
The AhR significantly participates in the xenobiotic metabolism pathway and the dioxin signaling pathway. It interacts with proteins such as ARNT and cytochrome P450 enzymes to mediate the cellular response to toxins. The activity of AhR regulates the expression of phase I and phase II detoxification enzymes making it an integral part of the body’s defense against environmental chemicals.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Disturbances in AhR activity have been linked to cancer and autoimmune diseases. Altered expression or function of AhR can contribute to aberrant cell proliferation and immune dysregulation. The AhR interacts with other proteins like peroxidase and its substrates playing a role in oxidative stress responses associated with these conditions. Understanding these links can offer insights into therapeutic targets for related diseases.
