Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-XPA [2A4]
  • Alternate names: DNA repair protein complementing XP A cells, DNA repair protein complementing XP-A cells, DNA repair protein complementing XPA cells, Excision repair controlling, Xeroderma pigmentosum 1, Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A, Xeroderma pigmentosum group A complementing protein, Xeroderma pigmentosum group A-complementing protein, XP 1, XP1, xpa, Xpac
  • Clone: 2A4
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Host: Mouse
  • Application: IHC ; IF ; WB
  • Strain: Balb/c
  • Description: XPA binds to the Replication Protein A (RPA) and is a core component of the nucleotide excision repair pathway. XPA is involved in one of the complementation groups of the heritable condition Xeroderma pigmentosum, where defects in nucleotide excision repair result in increased susceptibility to mutagens including UV.
  • Immunogen: His-tagged recombinant human XPA protein.
  • Isotype: IgG1
  • Research area: Genetics

  • For Research Use Only
