Recombinant Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: PCNA-4488H
• Product Overview: PCNA full length Human Recombinant protein produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain having a molecular mass of 62kDa which includes GST-tag fusion protein.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Human
• Tag: GST
• Description: PCNA is located in the nucleus and is a cofactor of DNA polymerase delta. PCNA acts as a homotrimer and helps elevate the processivity of leading strand synthesis during DNA replication. In reaction to DNA damage, PCNA is ubiquitinated and takes part in the RAD6-dependent DNA repair pathway. 2 transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for PCNA gene. Pseudogenes of this PCNA gene have been described on chromosome 4 and on the X chromosome. PCNA is expressed during late G1- phase, S-phase of mitosis and persists until the end of the M-phase because of its long biological half-life. PCNA is induced by UV irradiation.
• Form: The PCNA solution contains 50mM Tris-Acetate pH-7.5 & 1mM EDTA & 20% glycerol.
• Physical Appearance: Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
• Storage: PCNA although stable 4°C for 4 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
• Pathways: Base excision repair; Cell cycle; DNA replication; Mismatch repair; Nucleotide excision repair; Cell Cycle, Mitotic; DNA Repair; DNA Replication; Telomere Maintenance
• Full Length: Full L.
