Product number: PA1-211A - Provider product page
Provider: Invitrogen Antibodies
Product name: THRA Polyclonal Antibody
Antibody type: Polyclonal
Antigen: Synthetic peptide
Description: PA1-211A detects thyroid receptor (TR) from human, mouse, rat and chicken samples. This antibody does not detect TRv alpha -2 or TR beta-1. PA1-211A has been successfully used in Western blot, IHC-P, ICC/IF and gel shift procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects a ~48 kDa protein representing recombinant human TR alpha-1 expressed in E. coli. Gel shift experiments show that this product reacts with TR alpha-1 homodimers and TR alpha-1/retinoic X receptor (RXR) heterodimers. PA1-211A immunizing peptide corresponds to amino acid residues 403-410 from human TR alpha-1. This sequence is completely conserved between human and rat TR alpha-1.
Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Chicken/Avian
Host: Rabbit
Isotype: IgG
Vial size: 100 µL
Concentration: Conc. Not Determined
Storage: -20° C, Avoid Freeze/Thaw Cycles

Experimental details: Immunofluorescent analysis of Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha-1 (green) showing staining in the nucleus and cytoplasm of A431 cells (right) compared to a negative control without primary antibody (left). Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with a Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha-1 polyclonal antibody (Product # PA1-211A) in 3% BSA-PBS at a dilution of 1:100 and incubated overnight at 4 ºC in a humidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a DyLight-conjugated secondary antibody in PBS at room temperature in the dark. F-actin (red) was stained with a fluorescent red phalloidin and nuclei (blue) were stained with Hoechst or DAPI. Images were taken at a magnification of 60x.

Experimental details: Immunohistochemistry analysis of Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha-1 showing staining in the cytoplasm and nucleus of paraffin-treated human colon carcinoma (right) compared with a negative control in the absence of primary antibody (left). To expose target proteins, antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH 6.0), microwaved for 8-15 min. Following antigen retrieval, tissues were blocked in 3% H2O2-methanol for 15 min at room temperature, washed with ddH2O and PBS, and then probed with a Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha-1 polyclonal antibody (Product # PA1-211A) diluted by 3% BSA-PBS at a dilution of 1:500 overnight at 4°C in a humidified chamber. Tissues were washed extensively in PBST and detection was performed using an HRP-conjugated secondary antibody followed by colorimetric detection using a DAB kit. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and dehydrated with ethanol and xylene to prep for mounting.
