General description

X-ray repair cross-complementing protein (XRCC2) is a member of the RecA family which is essential for DNA repair and maintenance. XRCC2 also belongs to the Rad51 subfamily of proteins involved in double stranded DNA break repair. XRCC2 is thought to encode a member of the RecA/Rad51 related protein family which maintains chromosome stability and repairs DNA damage. XRCC2 and RAD51 interact to form a multimeric ring in the absence of DNA. XRCC2 is thought to load Rad51 onto gapped DNA.
~32 kDa

Immunogen

A synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 206-217 of XRCC2.

Application

Immunocytochemistry:
Anti-XRCC2 polyclonal was used in immunocytochemistry to positively stain the nucleus on A431, NIH/3T3 and HeLa cells.

Immunohistochemistry(paraffin): Anti-XRCC2 antibody was used for immunohistochemistry on human lung tissue.
Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded Human lung tissue stained with anti-XRCC2 (1:100) with Citrate pH 6.0 (HIER).
