Description
XRCC6/XRCC5 Antibody (PACO23829)
The XRCC6/XRCC5 Antibody (PAC023829) is a valuable tool for research involving the XRCC6 and XRCC5 proteins, important players in DNA repair mechanisms. This polyclonal antibody, generated in rabbits, is highly specific to human samples and is suitable for use in Western blot applications. By binding to XRCC6 and XRCC5 proteins, this antibody allows for the detection and analysis of these key players in DNA repair pathways across different cell types, making it an essential tool for studies in genetics and cancer research.
XRCC6 and XRCC5 are crucial components of the non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway, responsible for repairing double-strand breaks in DNA. Dysfunction in these proteins has been linked to genomic instability and increased risk of cancer development. Understanding the role and regulation of XRCC6 and XRCC5 is vital for advancing our knowledge of DNA repair mechanisms and developing targeted therapies for cancer treatment.

| Background: | Single-stranded DNA-dependent ATP-dependent helicase. Has a role in chromosome translocation. The DNA helicase II complex binds preferentially to fork-like ends of double-stranded DNA in a cell cycle-dependent manner. It works in the 3'-5' direction. Binding to DNA may be mediated by XRCC6. Involved in DNA non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) required for double-strand break repair and V(D)J recombination. The XRCC5/6 dimer acts as regulatory subunit of the DNA-dependent protein kinase complex DNA-PK by increasing the affinity of the catalytic subunit PRKDC to DNA by 100-fold. The XRCC5/6 dimer is probably involved in stabilizing broken DNA ends and bringing them together. The assembly of the DNA-PK complex to DNA ends is required for the NHEJ ligation step. Required for osteocalcin gene expression. Probably also acts as a 5'-deoxyribose-5-phosphate lyase (5'-dRP lyase), by catalyzing the beta-elimination of the 5' deoxyribose-5-phosphate at an abasic site near double-strand breaks. 5'-dRP lyase activity allows to 'clean' the termini of abasic sites, a class of nucleotide damage commonly associated with strand breaks, before such broken ends can be joined. The XRCC5/6 dimer together with APEX1 acts as a negative regulator of transcription. |

| NCBI Summary: | The p70/p80 autoantigen is a nuclear complex consisting of two subunits with molecular masses of approximately 70 and 80 kDa. The complex functions as a single-stranded DNA-dependent ATP-dependent helicase. The complex may be involved in the repair of nonhomologous DNA ends such as that required for double-strand break repair, transposition, and V(D)J recombination. High levels of autoantibodies to p70 and p80 have been found in some patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
