Anti-MRE11 Antibody Picoband®, Dylight550 Conjugate

Double-strand break repair protein MRE11A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MRE11A gene. This gene encodes a nuclear protein involved in homologous recombination, telomere length maintenance, and DNA double-strand break repair. By itself, the protein has 3' to 5' exonuclease activity and endonuclease activity. The protein forms a complex with the RAD50 homolog; this complex is required for nonhomologous joining of DNA ends and possesses increased single-stranded DNA endonuclease and 3' to 5' exonuclease activities. In conjunction with a DNA ligase, this protein promotes the joining of noncomplementary ends in vitro using short homologies near the ends of the DNA fragments. This gene has a pseudogene on chromosome 3. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Could induce apoptosis in a BH3 domain-dependent manner. The interaction network of Bcl-2 family members may play a key role in modulation RTL10/BOP intrinsic apoptotic signaling activity.
