Recombinant ESR1 Antibody / Estrogen Receptor alpha, 20 ug

Estrogen receptor (ER) belongs to the steroid receptor superfamily of nuclear receptors. It is a protein with 553 amino acids. The receptor molecule has three domains, i.e. the central DNA-binding domain, the hormone-binding domain at the C-terminal, and the transcription-activating domain at the N-terminal. ER mediates regulatory functions of female sex steroids, mainly 17 (E2), on growth, differentiation and function in several target tissues, including female and male reproductive tract, mammary gland, and skeletal and cardiovascular systems.Studies have shown ER can be used as a tumor marker, preferentially in combination with an antibody to progesterone receptor, e.g., in the classification of adenocarcinomas.
