Protocols

Specificity / Sensitivity

NRBF-2 (D8G1) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total NRBF-2 protein. Based upon sequence alignment, this antibody is predicted to cross-react with NRBF-1/COPR1.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of human NRBF-2 protein.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from various cell lines using NRBF-2 (D8G1) Rabbit mAb.

Background

Nuclear Receptor Binding Factor-2 (NRBF-2), also referred to as Comodulator of PPAR and RXRα-2 (COPR-2), has been shown to interact with the AF-2 region of several nuclear hormone receptors with varying affinities such as PPARα, RARα, RARγ, and RXRα (1,2). NRBF-2 contains a LLYLL motif, which matches the LXXLL NR box consensus and is required for functional NRBF-2/nuclear receptor complex formation and repression of receptor function. NRBF-2 also contains a unique autonomous activation domain and, thus, does not completely abrogate nuclear receptor function, suggesting that NRBF-2 might serve as a molecular rheostat to fine-tune the transcriptional activity of liganded nuclear receptors (1,2).
