| Description | Ku antigen consists of two polypeptides (70kD and 80kD; the p80 subunit is occasionally called p86). The Ku heterodimer provides DNA-binding and regulatory functions to DNA-dependent protein kinase which is a central enzyme for DNA recombination processes in eucaryotic cells. The Ku protein plays important roles in multiple nuclear processes including DNA repair, V(D)J recombination, telomere maintenance, and the regulation of specific gene transcription. Antibodies to Ku were originally reported in scleroderma-polymyositis overlap syndrome (up to 20% of patients) but have also been detectable in about 20 % of patients with primary pulmonary hypertension (as a complication of overlap), in 5-10 % of SLE and MCTD patients, and in up to 20 % of patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome. In IIF using HEp-2 cells, Ku-positive sera yield a dense, fine granular pattern with nucleolar staining that is typical but not specific for anti-Ku. Detection of Ku antibodies by Western blot may bear false-negative results since the main reactive epitope on the p70/p80 heterodimer is conformation-dependent. Description: Recombinant Human KuP70/P80 produced in SF9 is a glycosylated, polypeptide chain having a molecular mass of 43,591 dalton. Recombinant Ku(P70/P80) is expressed with a -6xHis tag and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Immunological Functions: 1. Binds IgG-type human auto-antibodies. 2. Standard ELISA test (checker-board analysis of positive/negative sera panels including CDC international reference sera). Applications: Western-Blot with monoclonal anti-hexa-His-tag antibody & anti-Ku autoantibody-positive patient sera. Coating Concentration: 0.2-0.6ug/ml (depending on the type of ELISA plate and coating buffer). Suitable for biotinylation and iodination. Stability: Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles. | ||
