Product Information

Product Usage Information

Application Dilution
Western Blotting 1:1000
Immunoprecipitation 1:100
Immunofluorescence (Immunocytochemistry) 1:400

Storage

Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA, 50% glycerol and less than 0.02% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

Specificity / Sensitivity

Androgen Receptor (E3S4N) Rabbit mAb (Carboxy-terminal Antigen) recognizes endogenous levels of total Androgen Receptor protein. This antibody does not detect AR-V7 protein.

Species Reactivity:

Human

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Val662 of human Androgen Receptor protein.

Background

Androgen receptor (AR), a zinc finger transcription factor belonging to the nuclear receptor superfamily, is activated by phosphorylation and dimerization upon ligand binding (1). This promotes nuclear localization and binding of AR to androgen response elements in androgen target genes. Research studies have shown that AR plays a crucial role in several stages of male development and the progression of prostate cancer (2,3).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.

Androgen Receptor (E3S4N) Rabbit mAb (Carboxy-terminal Antigen)

Western Blotting Image 1: Androgen Receptor (E3S4N) Rabbit mAb (Carboxy-terminal Antigen) Expand Image
Western blot analysis of extracts from various cell lines using Androgen Receptor (E3S4N) Rabbit mAb (Carboxy-terminal Antigen) (upper) or β-Actin (D6A8) Rabbit mAb #8457 (lower). As expected, DU 145 cells are negative for Androgen Receptor expression.
Immunoprecipitation Image 1: Androgen Receptor (E3S4N) Rabbit mAb (Carboxy-terminal Antigen) Expand Image
Immunoprecipitation of Androgen Receptor from LNCaP cell extracts. Lane 1 is 10% input, lane 2 is Rabbit (DA1E) mAb IgG XP® Isotype Control #3900, and lane 3 is Androgen Receptor (E3S4N) Rabbit mAb (Carboxy-terminal Antigen). Western blot analysis was performed using Androgen Receptor (E3S4N) Rabbit mAb (Carboxy-terminal Antigen). Anti-rabbit IgG, HRP-linked Antibody #7074 was used as a secondary antibody.

Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of LNCaP cells (left, positive) and DU 145 cells (right, negative) usingAndrogen Receptor (E3S4N) Rabbit mAb (Carboxy-terminal Antigen) (green). Actin filaments were labeled with DyLight 554 Phalloidin #13054 (red). Samples were mounted in ProLong® Gold Antifade Reagent with DAPI #8961 (blue).
