NR2C1 polyclonal antibody

The human TR2 orphan receptor is a member of the steroid/thyroid hormone receptor superfamily that controls a variety of processes, including growth, differentiation and development. TR2 is known to bind to regulatory elements of the erythropoietin gene, the muscle-specific aldolase A gene and the CNTF-15 gene. In addition to TR2, a related orphan receptor, designated TR4, has been identified. TR4 forms heterodimers with TR2, which are thought to be involved in neurogenesis and germ cell development. TR2 is known to be downregulated by both p53 and ionizing radiation, and it may play a role in linking p53 to members of the steroid receptor family.
