Gene Information

human ... RUVBL2(10856)

General description

Monoclonal Anti-Reptin (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma 2E9-5 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a human Reptin fusion protein.
Reptin, also known as RuvB-like 2 RUVBL2, is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 19q13.33. The encoded protein belongs to the AAA+ family of DNA helicases.

Immunogen

a human Reptin fusion protein. The corresponding sequence differs by one amino acid in mouse.

Application

Monoclonal Anti-Reptin antibody produced in mouse has been used in:
  • immunoblotting
  • immunoprecipitation
  • immunofluorescence
  • confocal microscopy

Biochem/physiol Actions

Reptin and pontin are associated with several chromatin-remodeling complexes and are involved in multiple biological processes including chromatin remodeling, DNA damage repair, telomerase activity, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis and cancer metastasis. Both proteins are also involved in cellular transformation by β-catenin and c-myc through their chromatin remodeling function.
Reptin has been involved in various cellular processes, including the response to DNA double-strand breaks and the control of gene expression. The encoded protein plays a vital role in repression of specific β-catenin and nuclear factor-κB targets. Elevated expression of the gene leads to the development of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) and renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Thus, reptin can be considered as a potential therapeutic target for HCC and RCC.

Physical form
