Product Overview
Clone 3D7 is a mouse monoclonal antibody that recognizes DNA repair protein Ku70 (gene XRCC6) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 69.8 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 70 kDa.
Ku70 (XRCC6) is one half of the Ku heterodimer with Ku80, which encircles DNA ends at double-strand breaks and serves as the first responder of non-homologous end joining. Ku recruits DNA-PKcs and downstream repair enzymes, supports V(D)J recombination, and also helps protect telomeres, so it is a common target in DNA repair research.

Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of at C-terminus of human Ku70. It differs from the mouse sequence at one residue.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places DNA repair protein Ku70 in the nucleus, chromosome and cytoplasm. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
