anti-LXR Antibody

LXR

LXRA , NR1H3 , Liver X receptor alpha , LXR a , Oxysterols receptor

Liver X receptors (LXRs) are oxysterol activated nuclear receptors which are involved in the regulation of genesis and metabolism of cholesterols and bile acids. LXRs form heterodimeric complexes with the retinoic acid receptors (RARs) once activated by their respective oxysterol ligands. Two known isoforms, alpha and beta, are differentially expressed; the alpha isoform predominantly expressed in liver, whereas beta isoform expression has been shown to be ubiquitous.

Rabbit

Polyclonal

Rabbit IgG

Human, mouse, rat

Synthetic peptide surrounding amino acid 435 of human LXR

0.5 mg/ml

Liquid

100 µg (0.5 mg/ml) affinity purified rabbit anti-LXR polyclonal antibody in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.2, containing 30% glycerol, 0.5% BSA, 0.01% thimerosal.

Affinity purified

Western blot

Western blotting (0.5-4 µg/ml). However, the optimal conditions should be determined individually. Other applications have not been determined. The antibody detects 49 kDa LXR alpha and beta subunits of human, mouse, rat and bovine LXR. Cross-reactivity to other species has not been determined. Jurkat cell lysate (Cat.# 2401-100) and mouse small intestine tissue lysate (Cat.# 2601-100) can be used as positive controls.

Shelf time: 12 months in temp.: -20 deg.C

gel pack

The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.

This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.

If you buy Antibodies supplied by Biovision they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.
