Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets general transcription and DNA repair factor IIH helicase subunit XPD (gene ERCC2) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 86.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 87 kDa.
XPD (ERCC2) is an ATP-dependent 5′-3′ DNA helicase and subunit of the TFIIH complex, which functions in both RNA polymerase II transcription and nucleotide excision repair. In repair, XPD verifies damage and opens DNA around lesions. Mutations cause xeroderma pigmentosum group D, trichothiodystrophy and related disorders.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |

| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human K562 cells, human SiHa cells, human HepG2 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.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human bladder epithelial carcinom tissue, mouse testis tissue, rat testis tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): THP-1 cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human XPD/ERCC2 fragment (Glu79–Ala295), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places general transcription and DNA repair factor IIH helicase subunit XPD in the nucleus and cytoplasm. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
