The Phospho BLM (Thr99) Antibody (PAC024377) is specifically designed for researchers studying the BLM protein and its phosphorylation at threonine 99. BLM is a DNA helicase involved in maintaining genome stability and function. Phosphorylation at Thr99 plays a crucial role in regulating the activity of BLM in DNA repair processes.Raised in rabbits, this antibody exhibits high reactivity with human samples and is validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding to the phosphorylated form of BLM, this antibody enables precise detection and analysis of BLM Thr99 phosphorylation in various cell types.
It is an essential tool for studies in molecular biology, DNA repair mechanisms, and cancer research.Understanding the phosphorylation status of BLM at Thr99 is critical for unraveling its functions in DNA repair pathways and its implications in cancer development and progression. This antibody provides researchers with a reliable tool for investigating the role of BLM phosphorylation in genetic stability and the potential for targeted therapies in cancer treatment.

Background:
Participates in DNA replication and repair. Exhibits a magnesium-dependent ATP-dependent DNA-helicase activity that unwinds single- and double-stranded DNA in a 3'-5' direction. Involved in 5'-end resection of DNA during double-strand break (DSB) repair: unwinds DNA and recruits DNA2 which mediates the cleavage of 5'-ssDNA. Negatively regulates sister chromatid exchange (SCE).
Synonyms:
RECQ2; RECQL3; type 2; EC 3.6.1; RecQ protein-like 3
UniProt Protein Function:
BLM: a magnesium-dependent ATP-dependent DNA-helicase that unwinds single- and double-stranded DNA in a 3'-5' direction. A member of the RecQ helicase family that is required for genome stability. Participates in DNA replication, recombination and repair. Part of the BRCA1-associated genome surveillance complex (BASC), which contains BRCA1, MSH2, MSH6, MLH1, ATM, BLM, PMS2 and the RAD50-MRE11-NBS1 protein complex which is a dynamic process changing throughout the cell cycle and within subnuclear domains.

UniProt Protein Details:
NCBI Summary:
The Bloom syndrome gene product is related to the RecQ subset of DExH box-containing DNA helicases and has both DNA-stimulated ATPase and ATP-dependent DNA helicase activities. Mutations causing Bloom syndrome delete or alter helicase motifs and may disable the 3'-5' helicase activity. The normal protein may act to suppress inappropriate recombination.
