Estrogen Receptor alpha Monoclonal Antibody (AER314), Invitrogen™

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Brand:  Invitrogen MA512328

Product Code. 11304623

Description

MA5-12328 targets Estrogen Receptor in WB, GS, and IP applications and shows reactivity with bovine, human, mouse, rabbit, and rat samples. By Western blot, MA5-12328 detects recombinant ER alpha, but may not be suitable for detection of endogenous protein. The MA5-12328 immunogen is purified, SDS-denatured calf uterus estrogen receptor (ER).

Estrogen Receptors (ER) are members of the steroid/thyroid hormone receptor superfamily of nuclear receptors. The estrogen receptor is a ligand-activated transcription factor, that when bound to estrogen hormone, induces a conformational change that allows dimerization and binding to estrogen response elements (ERE) in DNA. When bound to EREs, ER can positively or negatively regulate gene transcription through the recruitment of coactivator or corepressor proteins. There are two different forms of the estrogen receptor, alpha and beta, encoded by separate genes (ESR1 and ESR2, respectively). Due to alternative RNA splicing, at least 4 estrogen receptor-alpha isoforms are known to exist (Isoform 1 (66 kDa), Isoform 2 (53 kDa), Isoform 3 (47 kDa), Isoform 4 (35 kDa)). Estrogen receptors are widely expressed in different tissue types and are essential for sexual development and reproductive function. They also play a role in other tissues such as bone. Estrogen receptors are involved in pathological processes including breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and osteoporosis.
