LXR alpha Antibody (PA1-330) in ICC/IF
Immunofluorescent analysis of LXR alpha (green) showing staining in the nucleus of MCF-7 cells (right) compared to a negative control without primary antibody (left). Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with a LXR alpha polyclonal antibody (Product # PA1-330) in 3% BSA-PBS at ... View More

Product Specific Information
PA1-330 detects recombinant human liver X receptor (LXR) alpha. This antibody does not detect human recombinant LXR beta protein.
PA1-330 has been successfully used in ICC/IF and Western blot procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects an ~64 kDa protein representing recombinant human LXR alpha.
The PA1-330 immunogen is a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues C D(318) F S Y N R E D F A K A(329) of human LXR alpha. The PA1-330 immunizing peptide (Cat. # PEP-114) is available for use in neutralization and control experiments.
Target Information
NR1H3 (oxysterols receptor LXR-alpha) is a nuclear receptor that exhibits a ligand-dependent transcriptional activation activity. Its interaction with retinoic acid receptor (RXR) shifts RXR from its role as a silent DNA-binding partner to an active ligand-binding subunit in mediating retinoid responses through target genes defined by LXRES. LXRES are DR4-type response elements characterized by direct repeats of two similar hexanucleotide half-sites spaced by four nucleotides. NR1H3 plays an important role in the regulation of cholesterol homeostasis, regulating cholesterol uptake through MYLIP-dependent ubiquitination of LDLR, VLDLR, and LRP8. It also interplays functionally with RORA for the regulation of genes involves in liver metabolism.
