Species Reactivity Note
|
|
The antibody has been directly tested for reactivity in Western blots in rat and human tissues. It is anticipated that the antibody will also work with bovine, mouse and non-human primate tissues based on the fact that these species have 100% homology with the amino acid sequence used as antigen.

Biological Significance
|
|
Retinoic acid (RA; active metabolite of vitamin A) plays a prominent role in regulating the transition of proliferating precursor cells (such as carcinoma cells and neuronal precursors) to postmitotic differentiated cells (Joshi et al., 2005). The Retinoid X Receptors (RXRs) family (RXRalpha, beta and gamma) preferentially bind 9-cis-RA and regulate gene transcription by forming heterodimers with a second family of RA receptors. RAs have been suggested to potentially play a therapeutic role in cervical cancer (Abu et al., 2005). RAs are known to play key roles in neuronal development and an increasing body of evidence indicates that retinoid signaling may regulate synaptic plasticity and associated learning and memory behaviors (Lane and Bailey, 2005).

Other Notes
|
|
Small volumes of anti-RXRG antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage.

NCBI Summary for RXRG
|
|
This gene encodes a member of the retinoid X receptor (RXR) family of nuclear receptors which are involved in mediating the antiproliferative effects of retinoic acid (RA). This receptor forms dimers with the retinoic acid, thyroid hormone, and vitamin D receptors, increasing both DNA binding and transcriptional function on their respective response elements. This gene is expressed at significantly lower levels in non-small cell lung cancer cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

UniProt Comments for RXRG
|
|
Function: Receptor for retinoic acid. Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes. The RAR/RXR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. The high affinity ligand for RXRs is 9-cis retinoic acid
By similarity.
Subunit structure: Homodimer
By similarity. Heterodimer with a RAR molecule
By similarity. Binds DNA preferentially as a RAR/RXR heterodimer
By similarity.
Subcellular location: Nucleus
By similarity.
Domain: Composed of three domains: a modulating N-terminal domain, a DNA-binding domain and a C-terminal ligand-binding domain
By similarity.
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR2 subfamily.Contains 1 nuclear receptor DNA-binding domain.
