Androgen Receptor (AR) pSer213 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Specifications

Product Data
Applications	IF, WB
Recommend Dilution	Western blot: 1/500-1/1000. Immunofluorescence: 1/100-1/200.
Reactivity	Human
Host	Rabbit
Clonality	Polyclonal
Immunogen	The antiserum was produced against synthesized phosphopeptide derived from human Androgen Receptor around the phosphorylation site of serine 213 (E-A-SP-G-A).
Specificity	Antibody AP08008PU detects endogenous levels of Androgen Receptor only when phosphorylated at Serine 213.
Formulation	PBS (without Mg2+ and Ca2+), pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% Sodium Azide and 50% Glycerol. State: Aff - Purified State: Liquid purified Ig fraction.
Concentration	lot specific
Purification	Immunoaffinity Chromatography: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific phosphopeptide. The antibody against non-phosphopeptide was removed by chromatography using non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site.
Conjugation	Unconjugated
Storage Condition	Store the antibody (in aliquots) at -20°C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Gene Name	androgen receptor
Database Link	Entrez Gene 367 Human UniProt ID P10275
Background	The androgen receptor (AR) is a 110 kDa androgen-dependent transcription factor that is a member of the steroid/nuclear receptor gene superfamily. The AR signaling pathway plays a key role in development and function of male reproductive organs, including the prostate and epididymis. AR also plays a role in nonreproductive organs, such as muscle, hair follicles, and brain. Abnormalities in the AR signaling pathway have been linked to a number of diseases, including prostate cancer, Kennedy's disease and male infertility. The PI3K/Akt signaling pathway plays an important role in regulating AR activity through phosphorylation of AR at Ser213/210 and Ser791/790. Growth factors or cytokines may induce phosphorylation of AR through the PI3K/Akt pathway. Activation of the PI3K/AKt pathway is thought to have a survival role in prostate cancer by protecting cells from apoptosis.
Synonyms	Dihydrotestosterone receptor, DHTR, NR3C4
