Biological background

GHR (protein: T-cell surface glycoprotein CD4) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Participates in the apoptotic response to DNA damage. Isoforms containing the transactivation domain are pro-apoptotic, isoforms lacking the domain are anti-apoptotic and block the function of p53 and transactivating p73 isoforms. May be a tumor suppressor protein. . Reported cellular localization context: Nucleus . Cytoplasm. Accumulates in the nucleus in response to DNA damage. Tissue expression notes (as provided): Expressed in striatal neurons of patients with Huntington disease (at protein level). Brain, kidney, placenta, colon, heart, liver, spleen, skeletal muscle, prostate, thymus and pancreas. Highly expressed in fetal tissue. .

Research relevance and current trends

• Research context keywords from the source record include: Apoptosis,Cell Biology,Intracellular,p53 Pathway.
• Current studies often focus on connecting target abundance/localization to pathway perturbations across models, tissues, and cell states.
• Quantitative and multiplexed assays (e.g., imaging + immunoblot panels) are commonly used to compare phenotypes across conditions and time-courses.

Common research applications

• Western blotting (WB): assess relative target abundance across samples, treatments, or time-points.
• Immunofluorescence/ICC (IF/ICC): visualize subcellular localization patterns and cell-to-cell heterogeneity.
• Flow cytometry: quantify target-positive populations and compare shifts in marker distributions.

Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate GHR antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect GHR expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Localize GHR by immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry in cultured cells, Quantify GHR-positive cells by flow cytometry in single-cell suspensions

Notes for experimental interpretation

• Consider isoforms and post-translational modifications (PTMs) that may shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
• Apparent molecular weight may vary by sample type and processing (observed MW: 75 kDa; calculated MW: 69623 MW).
• Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
