Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes DNA repair protein RAD51 homolog 3 (gene RAD51C) in human samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 42.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 42 kDa.
RAD51C is a RAD51 paralog found in both the BCDX2 and CX3 complexes, which act at early and late stages of homologous recombination. It is needed for efficient RAD51 foci formation and DNA repair, and germline RAD51C mutations are linked to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human 293T cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the middle region of human rad51C. It differs from the mouse sequence at eight residues.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places DNA repair protein RAD51 homolog 3 in the nucleus, cytoplasm and mitochondrion. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in a variety of tissues, with highest expression in testis, heart muscle, spleen and prostate. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
