Marker

Marker of Progestin Dependence

Specificity

This monoclonal antibody is specific to progesterone receptor and shows minimal cross-reaction with other members of the family. Progesterone receptor is expressed as two major isoforms, PR-A (81kDa) and PR-B (116kDa). Expression of PgR has been suggested to reflect a intact estrogen regulatory machinery and therefore, predict better clinical response to endocrine therapy than ER alone. It is excellent for immunohistochemical staining of formalin/paraffin tissues.

Isotype

IgG1 kappa

Description

The prediluted antibody does not require any mixing, dilution, reconstitution, or titration; the antibody is ready-to-use and optimized for staining.

Background: Progesterone R/NR3C3

The human Progesterone Receptor (PgR) is a member of the steroid family of nuclear receptors. PgR is found as a 120 kDa protein (Form B) or a 94 kDa protein (Form A) due to the use of alternative translation initiation sites. In its inactive state, PgR forms a multiprotein complex which includes heat shock proteins and immunophins. Upon binding of progesterone hormone to its receptor, there is a conformational change that allows dimerization and binding of the receptor to progesterone response elements (PRE) sequences, resulting in activated transcription.

FAQs for Progesterone R/NR3C3 Antibody (PR484) - IHC-Prediluted

Showing  1 - 1 of 1 FAQ Showing All
  • Q: I am interested in getting antibodies for PR (progesterone receptor) that would work in flow cytometry. Could you recommend some choices?

    A:

    We do not currently have any antibodies directed towards the progesterone receptor that have been validated in flow cytometry, but any of our antibodies that work in ICC should work just fine in flow as they are essentially the same application. Please see this link for our Progesterone Receptor antibodies validated in ICC.
