Androgen receptor (UniProt: P10275; also known as Dihydrotestosterone receptor, Nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group C member 4) is encoded by the AR (also known as DHTR, NR3C4) gene (Gene ID: 367) in human. Androgen receptor is a member of the family of NR3 ligand-dependent transcription factors that is composed of three domains: a modulating N-terminal domain, a DNA-binding domain and a C-terminal ligand-binding domain. In the presence of bound steroid, the ligand-binding domain interacts with the N-terminal modulating domain, and thereby activates AR transcription factor activity. It is predominantly cytoplasmic in its unlighted form, but translocates to the nucleus upon activation following ligand-binding and bind to DNA as homodimer. The androgen receptor associates with a number of adaptor-like proteins and functions as a complex that may induce or repress transcription depending on whether its associated proteins are co-activators or co-repressors that affect transcription possibly by modifying chromatin. Here co-activators are involved in histone acetylation and transcriptional activation whereas co-repressors are involved in histone deacetylation and transcriptional repression. The androgen receptor is considered to be important for determining sex and male characteristics. Defects in androgen receptor have been linked to metastatic prostate cancer. The mutated receptor stimulates prostate growth and metastases development despite of androgen ablation. Four different isoforms of androgen receptor have been described that are produced by alternative splicing. Isoform 3 and isoform 4 are reported to lack the C-terminal ligand-binding domain and therefore constitutively activate the transcription of a specific set of genes independently of steroid hormones. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
