Product Description

This Mre11 antibody is useful for Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence, Immunohistochemistry on paraffin-embedded sections (PMID 21279473) Immunoprecipitation and Western Blot. In WB, a band can be seen at ~81 kDa. For ICC/IF, this antibody has been used with methanol-fixed IMR90 primary human fibroblasts. For IP, the suggested working dilution is 3 µL for immunoprecipitation of 3X10^6 cells. Co-IP application has been reported by Ching et al 2012 (PMID: 22190719). Suggested positive control: antigen standard for MRE11A (transient overexpression lysate), Hela whole cell extract, Hela whole cell lysate. MRE11 (double-strand break repair protein MRE11) is a component of the MRN complex. This complex plays a central role in double-strand break repair, DNA recombination, maintenance of telomere integrity and meiosis. The complex possesses single-stranded endonuclease activity and double-strand-specific 3'-5' exonuclease activity which are provided by MRE11. RAD50 is required to bind DNA ends and hold them in close proximity. Mutations in the gene could result in ataxia-telangiectasia-like disorder 1.
