VDR Antibody

Primary Antibodies; Cancer; Signal Transduction

This gene encodes the nuclear hormone receptor for vitaminD3. This receptor also functions as a receptor for the secondarybile acid lithocholic acid. The receptor belongs to the family oftrans-acting transcriptional regulatory factors and shows sequencesimilarity to the steroid and thyroid hormone receptors. Downstreamtargets of this nuclear hormone receptor are principally involvedin mineral metabolism though the receptor regulates a variety ofother metabolic pathways, such as those involved in the immuneresponse and cancer. Mutations in this gene are associated withtype II vitamin D-resistant rickets. A single nucleotidepolymorphism in the initiation codon results in an alternatetranslation start site three codons downstream. Alternativesplicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the sameprotein.
