General description

VDR (vitamin D receptor) or vitamin D3 receptor is a member of the steroid and thyroid hormone receptors superfamily of trans-acting transcriptional regulatory factors. It is an intracellular polypeptide of 50-60 kDa. This receptor is composed of a highly conserved cysteine, lysine, and arginine-rich DNA-binding domain, and a hydrophobic ligand-binding domain in its C-terminal. It shares size and sequence similarity to thyroid hormone receptor. VDR gene is localized to human chromosome 12q12-q14.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Vitamin D Receptor around the phosphorylation site of Ser208.

Immunogen Range: 181-230

Biochem/physiol Actions

VDR (vitamin D receptor) binds with its ligand vitamin D3, and acts upon the target cell nuclei to induce various biological effects. Vitamin D3 is also thought to have immunomodulatory effects, and gene polymorphisms are linked with pertussis. The variants might affect the immune response and clinical outcome of Bordetella pertussis infection.
