Applications

  • WB

Reactivity

  • Human

Predicted Reactivity

  • Non-Human Primate
Overview
Catalog # bs-70016R
Product Name Androgen Receptor (Ser94) Antibody
Applications WB
Specificity Specific for endogenous levels of the ~110k AR protein phosphorylated at Ser94. Immunolabeling is blocked by preadsorption of antibody with the phospho-peptide that was used to generate the antibody but not by the corresponding dephospho-peptide.
Reactivity Human
Predicted Reactivity Non-Human Primate
Specifications
Conjugation Unconjugated
Host Rabbit
Source Synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding Ser94 of human androgen receptor, conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH).
Modification Site Ser94
Clonality Polyclonal
Isotype IgG
Concentration Lot Dependent
Purification Antigen Affinity purification from Pooled whole antiserum
Storage Buffer 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg per ml BSA and 50% glycerol.
Storage Condition Storage at -20°C is recommended, as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.

Background The androgen receptor (AR) is a DNA-binding transcription factor that regulates genes critical for the development and maintenance of the male sexual phenotype. Defects in androgen receptor have been shown to play a role in prostate cancer, and inhibition of AR activity through modulation of signal transduction pathways may delay prostate cancer progression (Heinlein and Chang 2004). Multiple phosphorylation sites have been identified on the androgen receptor that affect cross-talk between growth factor signaling and androgen in prostate development and cancer (Gioeli et al., 2002). One of these sites, at Ser94, appears constitutively phosphorylated and exhibits no response to treatments with stimulating hormone (Gioeli et al., 2002). The site at Ser94 is unique among the AR phosphorylation sites in that it does not achieve a maximal level of phosphorylation between translation and the initial round of nuclear import, having a strong bias for androgen-independent phosphorylation in the cytoplasm (Kesler et al., 2007).
