It is essential for the development and maintenance of reproductive tissues, muscle, and bone, and contributes to various metabolic processes. AR is highly expressed in androgen-responsive tissues, where it regulates genes that drive male characteristics and muscle growth. Upon binding hormone ligand, AR dissociates from accessory chaperones, translocates to the nucleus, and activates transcription of androgen-responsive genes. Because of its roles in endocrine physiology and cancer, AR is a major focus in oncology and endocrinology research.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Description \u0026amp; Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGAL4-DBD-AR-LBD-BSD is a GAL4-nuclear receptor reporter lentivirus that expresses a chimeric protein joining the yeast GAL4 DNA-binding domain to the ligand-binding domain (LBD) of the human androgen receptor. Upon ligand binding, the LBD recruits co-activators and the chimera binds upstream GAL4 response elements to drive a fluorescent or luminescent reporter (GFP, RFP, or firefly luciferase), with high signal-to-noise relative to endogenous nuclear receptor background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GAL4-LBD design isolates LBD-mediated transactivation and prevents cross-reactivity with endogenous receptor targets, enabling specific pharmacological characterization of AR agonists, antagonists, and selective androgen receptor modulators. Supplied as high-titer lentiviral particles, it allows generation of stable cell lines for ligand profiling and is amenable to high-throughput screening by luminometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout This Product\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lentiviral system expresses a chimeric protein consisting of the GAL4 DNA-binding domain fused to the ligand-binding domain (LBD) of \u003cstrong\u003eAR\u003c\/strong\u003e. Upon specific ligand binding, the LBD undergoes conformational change and recruits co-activators; the activated chimera binds upstream GAL4 response elements (UAS×5) to drive expression of a fluorescent or luminescent reporter (GFP, RFP, or Firefly Luciferase) with high signal-to-noise relative to endogenous nuclear receptor background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GAL4-LBD design isolates LBD-mediated transactivation from A\/B domain-driven constitutive activity and prevents cross-reactivity with endogenous nuclear receptor targets, enabling highly specific pharmacological characterization of LBD agonists, antagonists, and selective receptor modulators (SARMs\/SERMs\/SPPARMs). This system is established for drug discovery in academic and industrial settings, and is amenable to high-throughput screening (HTS) formats using luminometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"LipExoGen Biotech","offers":[{"title":"GAL4-DBD-AR-LBD-BSD \/ Blasticidin \/ 3x10^6","offer_id":53251615687021,"sku":"GNV-0004-1S","price":995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GAL4-TAG-Puro \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53362027594093,"sku":"GNV-0004-1G","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GAL4-TAR-Puro \/ Puromycin \/ 5x10^6","offer_id":53362027626861,"sku":"GNV-0004-6G","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GAL4-TAL-Puro \/ Puromycin \/ 2x10^6","offer_id":53362027659629,"sku":"GNV-0004-3G","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/GAL4-Graphic-scaled.jpg?v=1776934280","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/gal4-dbd-ar-lbd-bsd-bhv19400188","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
