Mouse Progesterone Receptor Monoclonal Antibody | anti-PGR antibody
Progesterone Receptor Monoclonal Antibody
This antibody recognizes human progesterone receptor (PgR), a member of the steroid family of nuclear receptors. PgR is found as a 94 kD protein (Form A) or a 120 kD protein (Form B). Binding of progesterone to its receptor results in a conformational change that allows dimerization and binding of the receptor to progesterone response elements and activated transcription. When bound to DNA, PgR can positively or negatively regulate gene transcription.
Positive controls: MCF7 cells or recombinant protein.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the steroid receptor superfamily. The encoded protein mediates the physiological effects of progesterone, which plays a central role in reproductive events associated with the establishment and maintenance of pregnancy. This gene uses two distinct promotors and translation start sites in the first exon to produce two isoforms, A and B. The two isoforms are identical except for the additional 165 amino acids found in the N-terminus of isoform B and mediate their own response genes and physiologic effects with little overlap.

Product Notes
The PGR pgr (Catalog #AAA190386) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Progesterone Receptor can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunoblot. Immunoblotting: use at 1-5 ug/ml. Positive controls: MCF7 cells or recombinant protein. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PGR pgr for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Progesterone Receptor, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
