Application Details

Application Notes: Suitable for Immunohistochemistry and Immunocytochemistry (Frozen or Formalin-FixedParaffin-Embedded (FFPE) tissue sections and cell smears)For IHC dilute concentared antibody at 1/50-1/200, use streptavidinapprox. biotin system orpolymer system, incubate 30 minutes at room temperature. FFPE tissue section requires antigen retriever (boiling tissue in 10 mM citrate, pH 6.0 for 20 mins, followed by cooling at RT for 20 mins). Recommended Positive Control: Human tonsil, lymph node. Western Blot: 1/100-1/400.
Other applications not tested.
Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Background: Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen, commonly known as PCNA, is a protein that acts as a processivity factor for DNA polymerase delta in eukaryotic cells. The protein encoded by this gene is found in the nucleus and is a cofactor of DNA polymerase delta. The encoded protein acts as a homotrimer and helps increase the processivity of leading strand synthesis during DNA replication. In response to DNA damage, this protein is ubiquitinated and is involved in the RAD6-dependent DNA repair pathway. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. Pseudogenes of this gene have been described on chromosome 4 and on the X chromosome. PCNA was originally identified as an antigen that is expressed in the nuclei of cells during the DNA synthesis phase of the cell cycle It is increased during late G1 phase and S phase of the cell cycle and declines during G2 and M phases.Synonyms: Cyclin, Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen
