This PARP1 antibody is conjugated to Alexa Fluor 594
Application
Flow Cytometry (FACS)
Purification
The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and conjugated with Alexa Fluor® 594 under optimal conditions. The solution is free of unconjugated Alexa Fluor® 594.
PARP (Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase) is a 113 kD nuclear protein that can exist as a homo- or hetero-dimer. This protein acts as a molecular "nick sensor" and functions in base excision repair, poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of acceptor proteins involved in chromatin architecture and DNA metabolism and participates in protein modification to enhance or repress transcription. PARP is ribosylated by PARP2 and is a target for caspase cleavage during apoptosis. PARP interacts with proteins in the base excision repair complex containing at least XRCC1, PARP2, POLB and LIG3. In addition PARP forms heterodimers with PARP2, and interacts with PARP3. The 5A5 monoclonal antibody recognizes the N-terminal region of human and mouse PARP and has been shown to be useful for Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining.
