Anti-PCNA, Recombinant [PC10]
Invented by David Lane at Absolute Antibody Cancer Research UK London Research Institute: Clare Hall Laboratories
Catalogue Number | 151148 |
Applications | FACS IHC IF IP WB |
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | Proliferating cell nuclear antigen, (PCNA), also known as cyclin or polymerase delta accessory protein |
Synonyms | Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen; DNA Polymerase Delta Auxiliary Protein; ATLD2 |
Reactivity | Human, Insect and Schizosaccharomyces pombe |
Relevance | PCNA, also known as polymerase delta auxiliary protein, is essential for DNA replication and is involved in DNA excision and mismatch repair pathways. PCNA binds to the CDK inhibitor p21, the structure-specific endonucleases Fen1 and XPG, and DNA cytosine 5-methyltransferase (MCMT). PCNA is potentially a therapeutic target in cancer therapy and a useful marker for identifying the proliferation status of tumour tissue (i.e. relevant to prognosis). This antibody can be used for grading of different neoplasms, e.g. astrocytoma. It can be of diagnostic and prognostic value. |
