The Ku protein is localized in the nucleus and is composed of subunits referred to as Ku-70 (or p70) and Ku-86 (or p86), which is also known by the synonym Ku-80 (or p80). Ku was first described as an autoantigen to which antibodies were produced in a patient with scleroderma-polymyositis overlap syndrome, and was later found in the sera of patients with other rheumatic diseases. Both subunits of the Ku protein have been cloned, and a number of functions have been proposed for Ku, including cell signaling, DNA replication and transcriptional activation.Synonyms: 86 kDa subunit of Ku antigen, ATP-dependent DNA helicase II 80 kDa subunit, CTC box-binding factor 85 kDa subunit, CTC85, CTCBF, DNA repair protein XRCC5, G22P2, Lupus Ku autoantigen protein p86, Nuclear factor IV, TLAA, Thyroid-lupus autoantigen
