AR (Androgen receptor) is a 99kD (predicted) member of the NR3 subfamily, nuclear hormone receptor family of proteins.
Due to a high number of Gln and Pro residues, it runs anomalously at 100-120kD in SDS-Page.
It is widely expressed, being found in neurons, endothelial cells, osteoblasts, chrondrocytes, mascrophages, adipocytes, and prostate epithelium.
Human AR is 919aa in length.
It contains three discrete domains: a “modulating” N-terminus (aa1-553) that is rich in Gln, Pro and Gly, a Zn-finger DNA-binding region (aa554-635), and a ligand-binding domain (aa672-917).
AR is highly polymorphic at the N-terminus, with total Gln and Gly residues differing by seven or more residues among individuals.
Multiple potential splice forms exist, including an alternative start site at Met189 and a sevenaa substitution foraa1-538 that generates a 45kD isoform.
AR does homodimerize, apparently with multiple isotypes.
Overaa661-920, human and mouse are identical inaa sequence.
