Description

General description

Anti-XPG (C-terminal) is produced in rabbit using as immunogen a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 1120-1137 of human XPG, conjugated to KLH via an N-terminal added cysteine residue. Xeroderma pigmentosum group G (XPG) is a DNA repair gene, that is mapped to human chromosome13q33. It is a member of the FEN-1 family of structure-specific nucleases and contains two highly conserved nuclease motifs known as the N and I regions separated by a large insertion. This gene spans around 69kb in length and has15 exons. It is highly polymorphic.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 1120-1137 of human XPG, conjugated to KLH via an N-terminal added cysteine residue.

Application

Anti-XPG (C-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in:

• staining cells for xeroderma pigmentosum group G (XPG) detection
• immunoblotting
• immunofluorescence

Biochem/physiol Actions

Xeroderma pigmentosum group G (XPG) helps to maintain genomic stability. It also participates in RNA transcription by interacting with TFIIH, RNA polymerase II and Gadd45a. XPG also participates in nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway. Mutations in the XPG gene cause the Cockayne syndrome which is characterized by severe growth defects, mental retardation and cachexia.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
