Androgen receptor

AR (Androgen Receptor)

Description- This monoclonal antibody is specifically designed to recognize a unique immunogenic N-terminal transactivation domain of the androgen receptor that has a low degree of homology with other steroid receptors. This antibody binds to synthetic peptide SP61 of human androgen receptor. This antibody does not cross-react with human estrogen, progesterone or glucocorticoid receptor. AR plays important roles in prostate cancer, especially castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).

Methodology: Immunohistochemistry

TAT: 3-5 days
