Quick Overview for Progesterone Receptor antibody (AA 483-571) (ABIN6938169)

Target: Progesterone Receptor (PGR)

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Progesterone Receptor antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Sections) (IHC (f))

Clone: PGR-2694

Product Details anti-Progesterone Receptor Antibody

Binding Specificity: AA 483-571

Specificity: This MAb 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 (81 kDa) and PR-B (116 kDa). Expression of PgR has been suggested to reflect a intact estrogen regulatory machinery and therefore, predict better clinical response to endocrine therapy than estrogen receptor (ER) alone. This MAb is excellent for immunohistochemical staining of formalin-fixed tissues.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human.

Purification: 1.0mg/ml of Ab purified from Bioreactor by Protein A/G.

Immunogen: Recombinant fragment of human Progesterone Receptor (PGR) protein (around aa 483-571) (exact sequence is proprietary)

Isotype: IgG1 kappa

Application Details

Application Notes:

Known_Application: Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed) (1-2 μg/mL for 30 min at RT) (our BEST clone)(Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires heating tissue sections in 10 mM Tris with 1 mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 45 min at 95°C followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes), Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined.

Positive_Control: T47-D cells. Endometrial or Breast Carcinoma.
