for LXR-β antibody (pAb)Background

LXR-β (Liver X receptor beta, NR1H2, NER, UNR) is an orphan nuclear receptor and a member of the NR1 receptor family. The LXR receptors (including LXR-α and LXR-β ) bind oxysterols and play key roles in maintaining cholesterol homeostasis in macrophages, primarily by regulating multiple components of the reverse cholesterol transport. They also are potent inhibitors of inflammation and are capable of repressing cytokine and chemokine production by Toll-like receptor (TLR)-activated macrophages. LXR-β is more widely expressed than LXR-α, particularly in the brain.

for LXR-β antibody (pAb)Immunogen

This LXR-β antibody was raised against a peptide in the N-terminal region of human LXR-β.

for LXR-β antibody (pAb)Application Notes

This LXR-β antibody has been validated for use in chromatin IP (10 µl per ChIP), ChIP-Seq & ChIP-chip (10 µl each) and Western blotting (1:500 to 1:1,000 dilution).

For optimal results in Western blotting, primary antibody incubations should be performed at 4°C. The addition of 0.1% Tween 20 to all Blotto solutions may also reduce background. Individual optimization may be required.

LXR-β antibody (pAb) tested by Western blot.

LXR-β pAb tested by Western blot.
Detection of LXR-β by Western blot analysis. HeLa whole-cell extract (20 µg) was probed with LXR-β pAb at a 1:1000 dilution.

LXR-β antibody (pAb) tested by ChIP.

LXR-β pAb tested by ChIP-qPCR.
Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was performed using Active Motif's Epigenetic Services protocol with 25 µg of human liver chromatin and 10 µl of LXR-β antibody. ChIP DNA was used in qPCR with the negative control primer pairs and primers against the known LXR binding site in the RARB promoter. Data are presented as Binding Events Detected per 1000 Cells using Active Motif's Epigenetic Services normalization scheme which accounts for primer efficiency and the amount of chromatin used in the ChIP reaction.

LXR-β antibody (pAb) tested by ChIP-chip.

LXR-β pAb tested by ChIP-Chip.
ChIP was performed using chormatin from 2.5 million primary human liver cells. ChIP DNA was amplified by WGA, labeled and hybridized to a human tiling array. The image is zoomed in to show LXR-β binding at a known LXR binding site in the RARB promoter.

for LXR-β antibody (pAb)Storage

Antibodies in solution can be stored at -20°C for 2 years. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles and keep on ice when not in storage.

for LXR-β antibody (pAb)Guarantee

This product is guaranteed for 6 months from date of arrival.
