Anti-Rad51 [Rad51 3C10] recombinant antibody

Invented at Cancer Research UK London Research Institute: Clare Hall Laboratories

Info

Catalogue Number 154832
Applications N/A
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets Rad51
Reactivity Bovine, Human and Pig
Relevance Recombinant antibody which binds RAD51 recombinase protein, associated with DNA repair pathway.

Background and Research Application
RAD51 is a eukaryotic homologue of E. coli RecA, a recombinase, and a component of the homologous recombination DNA repair pathway. RAD51 forms a nucleoprotein filament (through binding RAD52 and single stranded DNA that are exposed following double strand breaks) that initiates recombination. RAD51 catalyses the recognition of homology and strand exchange between homologous DNA partners to form a joint molecule between a processed DNA break and the repair template. Mutations in the gene can results in breast cancer, mirror movements 2 and Fanconi anaemia.
This is a recombinant version of the anti-RAD51 monoclonal antibody.
