Related Product Information for anti-XPA antibody
The XPA gene encodes a 31 kDa zinc metalloprotein that preferentially binds to DNA damaged by UV radiation and chemical carcinogens and is required for the incision step during nucleotide excision repair. The XPB and XPD genes encode DNA helicases involved in several DNA metabolic pathways, including DNA repair and transcription, and the XPG gene product is an endonuclease that cuts on the 3' side of a DNA lesion during nucleotide excision repair. Molecular defects in the XP variant (XPV) group maintain normal excision repair, yet they result in a substantial reduction in the ability to synthesize intact daughter DNA strands during DNA replication following DNA damage.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a zinc finger protein plays a central role in nucleotide excision repair (NER), a specialized type of DNA repair. NER is responsible for repair of UV radiation-induced photoproducts and DNA adducts induced by chemical carcinogens and chemotherapeutic drugs. The encoded protein interacts with DNA and several NER proteins, acting as a scaffold to assemble the NER incision complex at sites of DNA damage. Mutations in this gene cause Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A (XP-A), an autosomal recessive skin disorder featuring hypersensitivity to sunlight and increased risk for skin cancer.

Uniprot Description

XPA: Involved in DNA excision repair. Initiates repair by binding to damaged sites with various affinities, depending on the photoproduct and the transcriptional state of the region. Required for UV-induced CHEK1 phosphorylation and the recruitment of CEP164 to cyclobutane pyrimidine dimmers (CPD), sites of DNA damage after UV irradiation. Interacts with GPN1 and RPA1. Interacts (via N-terminus) with CEP164 upon UV irradiation. Interacts with HERC2. Expressed in various cell lines and in skin fibroblasts. Belongs to the XPA family.

Protein type: DNA repair, damage

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 9q22.3

Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; Golgi apparatus; intercellular bridge; DNA replication factor A complex; cytoplasm; nucleus

Product Notes

The XPA xpa (Catalog #AAA3008182) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The XPA Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's XPA can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF). WB: 1:500-1:2000 IF: 1:50-1:100. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the XPA xpa for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "XPA, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
