Mouse monoclonal antibody [h-151] to Estrogen Receptor alphaThis antibody recognizes human ER-alpha, a 65 kD protein and a member of the steroid family of nuclear receptors. ER-alpha is a ligand-activated transcription factor that, when bound to estrogen, induces a conformational change that allows dimerization and binding to estrogen response element sequences. When bound to DNA, ER-alpha can positively or negatively regulate gene transcription.

Gene Synonyms
P03372 ESR major ORF Era ER NR3A1 ESRA DKFZp686N23123 133430 ESR1 ER alpha 2099
Target
Estrogen Receptor alpha
Tissue Specificity
Binding specificity was confirmed in peptide inhibition studies with the intact protein. The antibody does not recognize the native estrogen receptor in the inactive 8S oligomeric state, but reacts efficiently with the activated 4S receptor. In immunoprecipitation studies, this antibody has been shown to only IP the active receptor.
