Background Information
The estrogen receptor (ESR, ER) is a ligand-activated transcription factor composed of several domains important for hormone binding, DNA binding, and activation of transcription. ESR1, also known as ESR or NR3A1, belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family and NR3 subfamily. It is a nuclear hormone receptor. The steroid hormones and their receptors are involved in the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression and affect cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues. ESR1 can activate the transcriptional activity of TFF1.[PMID: 11731608,10970861]

Reviews
What customers say
One reviewer used this antibody for Western Blot at a 1:1000 dilution on cancer cell lines and rated it 2 out of 5. They reported observing significant bands across numerous cell lines, including in cells where such robust expression was not expected. The reviewer suggested that a monoclonal antibody might provide more precise results compared to this polyclonal antibody, indicating concerns about specificity.

Shinford. Z (Verified Customer) (01-31-2024) | Significant bands were observed across numerous cell lines, including instances where cells were not expected to exhibit such robust expression intensity. It raises the possibility that a monoclonal antibody might yield more precise results compared to the polyclonal antibody currently employed.
