Retinoid X receptor alpha, ligand binding domain (RXRA-LBD) is a 56.67 kDa recombinant human protein (amino acids 204-462) expressed as a GST fusion protein in baculovirus-infected insect cells. RXRA-LBD was expressed and purified in the absence of exogenous ligands, making it ideal for ligand binding and coregulator displacement studies.
Specifications:
Functional assay: Functionally confirmed in a LanthaScreen™ TR-FRET coactivator assay to ensure performance.
Retinoic Acid (RA; active metabolite of vitamin A) plays a prominent role in regulating the transition of proliferating precursor cells (such as carcinoma cells and neuronal precursors) to postmitotic differentiated cells. The Retinoid X Receptors (RXRs) family (RXR alpha, beta, and gamma), preferentially bind 9-cis -RA and regulate gene transcription by forming heterodimers with a second family of RA receptors. RAs have been suggested to potentially play a therapeutic role in cervical cancer. RAs are known to play key roles in neuronal development and an increasing body of evidence indicates that retinoid signaling may regulate synaptic plasticity and associated learning and memory behaviors.
