Synthetic peptide, corresponding to amino acids 361-410 of Human PR.
Conjugation:
Unconjugated
Alternative Names:
NR3C3, PGR, PRGR, Progesterone receptor
The effects of progesterone are mediated by two functionally different isoforms of the progesterone receptor, PR-A and PR-B, which are transcribed from distinct, estrogen inducible promoters within a single copy of the PR gene. The PR-A and PR-B proteins are 90 kDa and 118 kDa respectively, the first 164 amino acids of PR-B are absent in PR-A. Progesterone bound PR-A and PR-B have different transcription activation properties. Specifically, PR-B functions as a transcriptional activator in most cell and promoter contexts, while PR-A is transcriptionally inactive and functions as a strong ligand dependent transdominant repressor of steroid hormone receptor transcriptiona activity. An inhibitory domain (ID), which maps to the amino terminus of the receptor, exists within both PR isoforms.
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
