転写因子のNurr1およびその同族体（Nur77およびNor1のは）核内受容体サブファミリー4A（NR4A）1に属します。それらの内因性リガンドはまだ同定されていないので、彼らはまた、オーファン受容体です。 Nurr1を最初は1992年にクローン化され、2脳内で発現することが知られているが、中脳ドーパミンニューロンの発達および維持のための重要な役割は、ノックアウトマウスの研究により明らかになった3。また、中脳ドーパミンニューロンの維持のための重要な役割は、最近、条件付きノックアウト研究4によって実証されました。による中脳ドーパミンニューロンのためのNurr1の重要な役割を示すこれらのエレガントな研究に、多くのその後の研究は、主に中脳ドーパミンニューロンおよびドーパミン関連の神経変性疾患、パーキンソン病（PD）に焦点を当ててきた5。 注目すべきは、Nurr1をは中脳ドーパミン（MDA）ニューロンにおいてだけでなく、ディだけでなく表現されていますそれは強くNurr1を、様々な脳機能に重要な役割を果たしていることを示す最近の研究によって支持されている多くの非DAの分野で機能的な役割を有し得ることを示唆している詩の脳領域2、。例については、このような学習として、メモリ誘導活性を示された、またはその他の海馬依存タスクがアップレギュレーション海馬6,7中のNurr1の発現をもたらします。また、海馬でのNurr1発現のノックダウンが強くのNurr1は、多くの脳領域で多様な役割を果たしていることを示唆し、長期記憶および/ ​​またはシナプス可塑性8-11を損なうのに十分でした。したがって、さらにNurr1をの細胞型特異的および細胞内発現を理解するためには、そのホモログNur77またはNor1のに任意の交差反応性を示さないのNurr1特異的抗体を使用することが望ましいです。本稿では、Nurr1を特異的抗体を生成し、その特異性を示す追加データを提示するために事前に吸着プロトコルについて説明します。

production of nurr-1 specific polyclonal antibodies free of cross-reactivity against its close homologs, nor1 and nur77

The nuclear receptor subfamily 4 (NR4A) is composed of 3 related proteins sharing a DNA binding domain (DBD) and a ligand-binding domain (LBD). The nuclear receptor related 1 protein (Nurr1 or NR4A2) plays a key role in the maintenance of the dopaminergic system. Dopamine dysfunctions associated with the Nurr1 gene include Parkinson&#8217;s disease, schizophrenia and manic depression among others. Furthermore, recent evidence indicates that Nurr1 is also expressed in other brain areas such as the hippocampus and plays critical roles for learning and memory. The other members of the family are nerve growth factor IB (Nur77 or NR4A1) and neuron-derived orphan receptor 1 (NOR1 or NR4A3). To help investigate the precise functional roles of Nurr1 in dopaminergic and other brain region-related neuronal dysfunctions antibodies devoid of cross-reactivities against Nur77 and NOR1 were needed. Since the proteins are more divergent in their LBDs than in their DNA binding domains immunization with purified LBDs should yield antibodies specific for Nurr1 with minimal reactivities against Nur77 and/or NOR1. Although anti-Nurr1 antibodies were successfully generated these showed significant immunoreactivity against the other members of the family. Affinity chromatography over immobilized Protein A followed by pre-adsorption against immobilized Nur77 and NOR1 LBDs yielded Nurr1 specific antibodies free of cross-reactivity. Here, we selectively target antibodies against a specific member of a highly conserved family of proteins by immunizing animals with their most divergent regions followed by removing cross reactive antibodies by pre-adsorption. The goal of the protocol is to increase polyclonal antibodies specificity through pre-adsorption against cross-reactive antigens.
