Gene Information

human ... PCNA(5111)

General description

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a nuclear protein, is expressed ubiquitously in mammals. This homotrimer protein is a doughnut-shaped molecule that is expressed at high levels in the thymus, bone marrow, fetal liver, and few cells of the small intestine and colon. PCNA is mainly located in the nucleus. The PCNA gene is a single-copy gene mapped to human chromosome 20p13.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human PCNA

Application

Anti-PCNA has been used in:
  • immunoblot (1:500) (1:1,000) (1:750)
  • far-western analysis (1:1000)
  • immunohistochemistry (1?:?50) (1:1000)
  • proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) overlay assay (1:1,000)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) participates in DNA replication and repair. It acts as an auxiliary factor of polymerase δ. It plays a key role in the maturation of Okazaki fragments. It can be used as a prognostic and diagnostic marker in chronic lymphoid leukemia (CLL). High expression of PCNA protein is seen in breast and duodenal cancers.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: LNFFTKATPLSSTVTLSMSADVPLVVEYKIADMGHLKYYLAPKIEDEEGS

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.
