Anti-pan Thyroid Hormone Receptor Antibody, clone N403/63

Thyroid hormone receptor alpha (UniProt P10827; also known as Nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group A member 1, V-erbA-related protein 7, EAR-7, c-erbA-1, c-erbA-alpha) is encoded by the THRA (also known as CHNG6, EAR7, ERBA, ERBA1, NR1A1, THRA1, THRA2) gene (Gene ID 7067) in human. Thyroid hormone receptors (THRs) bind to short, repeated sequences of DNA known as T3 response elements (TREs) and mediate thyroid hormone (TH) regulated gene transcriptions. THRs belong to the super family of single chain nuclear receptors with similar folded domain structures, including an N-terminal domain (A–B domain), a central DNA-binding domain (DBD), and a C-terminal ligand-binding domain (LBD). The LBD dictates ligand specificity and modulates homodimerization or heterodimerization with other family members. The DBDs of all THRs are highly homologous and each of these proteins can form heterodimers and homodimers. All THRs contain activation 1 (AF-1) region in the A–B domain; THRα1 and THRβ1-3 also contain a C-terminal AF-2 domain. THRα1 and THRα2 are truncated splice variants that do not contain AF-2 and do not bind the active TH form T3. In the absence of T3, THR recruits a co-repressor, such as N-CoR or N-CoR2.46, to the TRE sites, resulting in target transcription suppression as a result of co-repressor-mediated chromatin epigenetic modification. Upon T3 binding, the co-repressors are released, leading to the exposure of the AF-2 domain and recruitment of co-activators, such as SRC-1, that induce gene transcriptions by inducing chromatin remodeling and alter the DNA conformation.
