Description
Liver X receptor alpha (LXRa, RLD-1; NR1H3) is a member of orphan nuclear receptor. LXRa activator is the naturally occurring compound 22(R)- hydroxycholesterol (22(R)-HC), 20(S)HC, 24-HC, 25- HC, 7a-HC. LXRa is expressed in the liver, kidney and spleen. LXRa has important role in regulating cholesterol metabolism. It is believed that LXR specific agonist may have important medical applications in the regulation of cholesterol homeostasis. LXRa forms heterodimer with RXR.
Origin
Produced in BALB/c mouse ascites after inoculation with hybridoma of mouse myeloma cells (NS-1) and spleen cells derived from a BALB/c mouse immunized with Baculovirus-expressed recombinant human LXR alpha (2-97 aa) .
Notes
Sodium azide may react with lead and copper plumbing to form explosive metal azides. Flush with large amounts of water during disposal.
