As part of the heterotrimeric replication protein A complex (RPA\/RP-A), binds and stabilizes single-stranded DNA intermediates that form during DNA replication or upon DNA stress. It prevents their reannealing and in parallel, recruits and activates different proteins and complexes involved in DNA metabolism. Thereby, it plays an essential role both in DNA replication and the cellular response to DNA damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActivity assay development for kinetics, substrate scope, and inhibitor\/activator profiling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse of recombinant standards to improve assay calibration and cross-study comparability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs part of the heterotrimeric replication protein A complex (RPA\/RP-A), binds and stabilizes single-stranded DNA intermediates that form during DNA replication or upon DNA stress. It prevents their reannealing and in parallel, recruits and activates different proteins and complexes involved in DNA metabolism. Thereby, it plays an essential role both in DNA replication and the cellular response to DNA damage . In the cellular response to DNA damage, the RPA complex controls DNA repair and DNA damage checkpoint activation. Through recruitment of ATRIP activates the ATR kinase a master regulator of the DNA damage response . It is required for the recruitment of the DNA double-strand break repair factors RAD51 and RAD52 to chromatin, in response to DNA damage. Also recruits to sites of DNA damage proteins like XPA and XPG that are involved in nucleotide excision repair and is required for this mechanism of DNA repair . Plays also a role in base excision repair (BER), probably through interaction with UNG . Through RFWD3 may activate CHEK1 and play a role in replication checkpoint control. Also recruits SMARCAL1\/HARP, which is involved in replication fork restart, to sites of DNA damage. May also play a role in telomere maintenance. RPA3 has its own single-stranded DNA-binding activity and may be responsible for polarity of the binding of the complex to DNA . As part of the alternative replication protein A complex, aRPA, binds single-stranded DNA and probably plays a role in DNA repair. Compared to the RPA2-containing, canonical RPA complex, may not support chromosomal DNA replication and cell cycle progression through S-phase. The aRPA may not promote efficient priming by DNA polymerase alpha but could support DNA synthesis by polymerase delta in presence of PCNA and replication factor C (RFC), the dual incision\/excision reaction of nucleotide excision repair and RAD51-dependent strand exchange .\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard curve or spike-in reference for quantitative assays involving RPA3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnzymatic activity measurements with defined substrates\/cofactors (assay-dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound screening using concentration–response concepts (assay-dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecombinant constructs may not capture all native isoforms or PTMs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsider tag- or host-related effects when interpreting binding or activity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse appropriate blanks and matrix\/control concepts to separate signal from background.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProtKB P35244 — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb\/P35244 - NCBI Gene search: RPA3 — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=RPA3 - Ensembl search: RPA3 — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=RPA3 - Reactome Pathway Browser — Reactome — https:\/\/reactome.org\/ - NCBI Bookshelf — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/ --\u003e","brand":"CUSABIO TECHNOLOGY LLC","offers":[{"title":"1 mg","offer_id":53053409100141,"sku":"CSB-EP020091HU-1MG","price":1812.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug","offer_id":53053539189101,"sku":"CSB-EP020091HU-100UG","price":419.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 ug","offer_id":53053539221869,"sku":"CSB-EP020091HU-20UG","price":224.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/CSB-RP162394h-SDS.jpg?v=1772177660","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/recombinant-human-replication-protein-a-14kda-subunit-rpa3-partial-bhp10507325","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
