描述：

Estrogen Receptor α (D8H8) Rabbit mAb识别内源性水平的总ERα蛋白。该单克隆抗体通过用合成肽免疫动物制备，该合成肽是人ERα蛋白靠近羧基末端的残基。雌激素受体α(ERα)，是类固醇受体超家族的一员，含有高度保守的DNA结合域（DBD）和配体结合域（LBD）（1）。ERα通过其雌激素非依赖性和雌激素依赖性激活域（分别为AF-1和AF-2），调节转录招募共激活因子蛋白和与一般转录机制的相互作用（2）。磷酸化提供了调节ERα活性的重要机制（3,4）。 ERα有多个磷酸化位点（5）。丝氨酸（104，106，118和167位）都位于氨基末端的转录激活功能域AF-1，这些丝氨酸的磷酸化在调节ERα活性中起着重要作用。丝氨酸（118位）可能是转录调节激酶CDK7的底物（5）。丝氨酸（167位）可以通过p90RSK和Akt磷酸化（4,6）。 Ser167的磷酸化可能会使乳腺癌患者对他莫昔芬耐药（4）。

Specificity / Sensitivity

Estrogen Receptor α (D8H8) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total ERα protein.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues in the carboxy terminus of human ERα protein.

Background

Estrogen receptor α (ERα), a member of the steroid receptor superfamily, contains highly conserved DNA binding and ligand binding domains (1). Through its estrogen-independent and estrogen-dependent activation domains (AF-1 and AF-2, respectively), ERα regulates transcription by recruiting coactivator proteins and interacting with general transcriptional machinery (2).Phosphorylation at multiple sites provides an important mechanism to regulate ERα activity (3-5). Ser104, 106, 118, and 167 are located in the amino-terminal transcription activation function domain AF-1, and phosphorylation of these serine residues plays an important role in regulating ERα activity. Ser118 may be the substrate of the transcription regulatory kinase CDK7 (5). Ser167 may be phosphorylated by p90RSK and Akt (4,6). According to the research literature, phosphorylation at Ser167 may confer tamoxifen resistance in breast cancer patients (4).
