XPC Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total XPC protein.XPC抗体可以识别内源性XPC总蛋白。
Source / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human XPC protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.
Background
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a process by which cells identify and repair DNA lesions resulting from chemical or radiation exposure (1). XPC forms a complex with HR23B (2) that acts as a damage sensor due to its high affinity for geometry distorting DNA lesions. This complex localizes to sites of DNA damage and recruits the remaining members of the preincision complex necessary for initiation of NER (3). XPC is one of eight NER proteins (XPA-G, XPV) where defects result in Xeroderma pigmentosum, a disease characterized by sunlight sensitivity, a predisposition to cancer of exposed tissue, and, in some instances, neurological defects (4).
