Conjugation:
Unconjugated
Alternative Names:
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor, Ah receptor, AhR, Class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 76, bHLHe76, AHR, BHLHE76
The Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AHR), also known as the dioxin receptor, is a ligand-activated helix/loop/helix transcription factor found in a variety of vertebrate species. The known ligands for AHR are foreign planar aromatic compounds, such as polycyclic aromatic compounds and halogenated aromatic compounds such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD).Unlike the steroid/thyroid hormone receptors, there is no known physiological ligand for the AH Receptor. Studies indicate that in non-ligand activated cells, AHR is found complexed with HSP90 predominantly in the cytoplasm. Upon binding to an agonist, the ligand-activated AHR is believed to transform to a nuclear, DNA binding form. This transformation process appears to involve dissociation of HSP90 from AHR followed by formation of a heterodimer with AHR nuclear translocator protein (Arnt). The AHR-ligand complex appears to initiate gene transcription of cytochrome P450 1A1.
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
Form:
Rabbit IgG, 1mg/ml in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide, 50% glycerol, pH7.2
Application Dilute:
WB: 1:500~1:1000 IHC: 1:50~1:200
Application Notes:
p-AhR (S36) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of AhR only when phosphorylated at Ser36.
