ANTI-PCNA ANTIBODY CLONE PC10 (C15-1887-657)

General description

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a heterotrimeric nuclear protein that functions as a clamp on replicating DNA. In cases of DNA damage and failure of the DNA repair pathways, PCNA mediates translesion DNA synthesis, a DNA damage tolerance (DDT) pathway, which allows replication to progress in spite of large lesions to DNA which may be caused by replication stress, ionizing radiation, spontaneous DNA damage, among other factors. PCNA primarily recruits low-fidelity DNA polymerase enzymes that are capable of elongating DNA over lesion sites. PCNA is regulated by cycles of ubiquitination, depending on the DDT pathway involved: PCNA is monoubiquitinated by Rad6–Rad18; polyubiquitinated by the Mms2-Ubc13-Rad5; or sumoylated by the Ubc9-Siz1 complex.
