Immunogen
This antibody was developed against a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 207-221 (GRAREAS*GAPTSSKD) of human androgen receptor, containing the serine 213 phosphorylation site: GenBank Accession No. A39248. Note: S* refers to phosphorylated serine in the peptide sequence. Percent identity by BLAST analysis: Human, Chimpanzee, Baboon, Monkey, Marmoset (100%); Gorilla, Bat, Panda (93%); Dog, Bovine, Cat, Rabbit, Horse, Pig, Guinea pig (87%); Mouse, Rat, Hamster (80%).
Specificity
In IGF-1 stimulated LNCaP cells (passage number 38), a ~110 kD band was observed. Please see Lin et al. 2003 for additional details. The serine phosphorylation site recognized by this has been alternatively referred to Ser213 (Lee and Chang, 2003) and Ser210 (Lin et al, 2003). Variations in denotation can arise from how the sequence is counted in various GenBank accession numbers. The site is denoted as Ser213 in GenBank Accession No. A39248, which was used to design the immunogen.
