Quick Overview for Progesterone Receptor antibody (AA 483-571) (CF®640R) (ABIN7658934)

Target: Progesterone Receptor (PGR)

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Progesterone Receptor antibody is conjugated to CF®640R

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (fp))

Clone: PGR-2694

Product Details anti-Progesterone Receptor Antibody (CF®640R)

Binding Specificity: AA 483-571

Purpose: Progesterone Receptor (Marker of Progestin Dependence)(PGR/2694), CF640R conjugate

Characteristics: 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. Primary antibodies are available purified, or with a selection of fluorescent CF® Dyes and other labels. CF® Dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF®405S and CF®405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets, because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.
