Gene Symbol NR1I2
Gene Full Name nuclear receptor subfamily 1, group I, member 2
Background This gene product belongs to the nuclear receptor superfamily, members of which are transcription factors characterized by a ligand-binding domain and a DNA-binding domain. The encoded protein is a transcriptional regulator of the cytochrome P450 gene CYP3A4, binding to the response element of the CYP3A4 promoter as a heterodimer with the 9-cis retinoic acid receptor RXR. It is activated by a range of compounds that induce CYP3A4, including dexamethasone and rifampicin. Several alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms, some of which use non-AUG (CUG) translation initiation codon, have been described for this gene. Additional transcript variants exist, however, they have not been fully characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function Nuclear receptor that binds and is activated by variety of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds. Transcription factor that activates the transcription of multiple genes involved in the metabolism and secretion of potentially harmful xenobiotics, drugs and endogenous compounds. Activated by the antibiotic rifampicin and various plant metabolites, such as hyperforin, guggulipid, colupulone, and isoflavones. Response to specific ligands is species-specific. Activated by naturally occurring steroids, such as pregnenolone and progesterone. Binds to a response element in the promoters of the CYP3A4 and ABCB1/MDR1 genes. [UniProt]

  • ARG43116 anti-NR1I2 / PXR antibody IHC-P image

    Immunohistochemistry: Paraffin-embedded Human liver cancer tissue. Antigen Retrieval: Heat mediation was performed in Citrate buffer (pH 6.0) for 20 min. The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then stained with ARG43116 anti-NR1I2 / PXR antibody at 1 µg/ml dilution, overnight at 4°C.

    Western blot: 50 µg of sample under reducing conditions. HepG2, THP-1, HL-60, K562, A431, A549, HeLa and Caco-2 whole cell lysates stained with ARG43116 anti-NR1I2 / PXR antibody at 0.5 µg/ml dilution, overnight at 4°C.

  • ARG43116 anti-NR1I2 / PXR antibody FACS image

    Flow Cytometry: HepG2 cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum and then stained with ARG43116 anti-NR1I2 / PXR antibody (blue) at 1 µg/10^6 cells for 30 min at 20°C, followed by incubation with DyLight®488 labelled secondary antibody. Isotype control antibody (green) was rabbit IgG (1 µg/10^6 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (red) was also used as a control.
