TR4 Antibody / Testicular receptor 4 / NR2C2, 100 ug

Testicular receptor 4 (TR4), also known as NR2C2 (nuclear receptor subfamily 2, group C, member 2), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NR2C2 gene. This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. Members of this family act as ligand-activated transcription factors and function in many biological processes such as development, cellular differentiation and homeostasis. The activated receptor/ligand complex is translocated to the nucleus where it binds to hormone response elements of target genes. The protein encoded by this gene plays a role in protecting cells from oxidative stress and damage induced by ionizing radiation. The lack of a similar gene in mouse results in growth retardation, severe spinal curvature, subfertility, premature aging, and prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) development. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
