Biological background

Biological context: Auxiliary protein of DNA polymerase delta and is involved in the control of eukaryotic DNA replication by increasing the polymerase's processibility during elongation of the leading strand. Induces a robust stimulatory effect on the 3'-5' exonuclease and 3'-phosphodiesterase, but not apurinic-apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease, APEX2 activities. Has to be loaded onto DNA in order to be able to stimulate APEX2. Plays a key role in DNA damage response (DDR) by being conveniently positioned at the replication fork to coordinate DNA replication with DNA repair and DNA damage tolerance pathways (PubMed:24939902). Acts as a loading platform to recruit DDR proteins that allow completion of DNA replication after DNA damage and promote postreplication repair: Monoubiquitinated PCNA leads to recruitment of translesion (TLS) polymerases, while 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination of PCNA is involved in error-free pathway and employs recombination mechanisms to synthesize across the lesion (PubMed:24695737).

Common research applications

• Western blotting (WB): Compare TRPV1 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
• Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of TRPV1 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
• Immunofluorescence / ICC: Assess subcellular localization patterns and co-localization with compartment markers in cultured cells.
• Flow cytometry: Quantify TRPV1-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
• ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.

Notes for experimental interpretation

• Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
• Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.

Additional product notes (from provided fields)

• Background: The transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1(TRPV1), also known as the capsaicin receptor is a protein which in humans is encoded by the TRPV1 gene. TRPV1(also called Vanilloid receptor type 1) is a ligand-gated nonselective cation channel that is considered to be an important integrator of various pain stimuli such as endogenous lipids, capsaicin, heat, and low pH. In addition to expression in primary afferents, TRPV1 is also expressed in the CNS. Cui M et al.(2006) demonstrate that TRPV1 receptors in the CNS plays an important role in pain mediated by central sensitization. And the significant CNS penetration is necessary for a TRPV1 antagonist to produce broad-spectrum analgesia. And TRPV1 also participates in normal bladder function and is essential for normal mechanically evoked purinergic signaling by the urothelium.
