Anti-SMC6L1 Antibody Picoband® (FITC Conjugate)

Structural maintenance of chromosomes protein 6, also knowns SMC6L1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SMC6 gene. It is involved in the Alternative lengthening of telomeres cancer mechanism. The International Radiation Hybrid Mapping Consortium mapped the SMC6L1 gene to chromosome 2.

Core component of the SMC5-SMC6 complex, a complex involved in DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination. The complex may promote sister chromatid homologous recombination by recruiting the SMC1-SMC3 cohesin complex to double-strand breaks. The complex is required for telomere maintenance via recombination in ALT (alternative lengthening of telomeres) cell lines and mediates sumoylation of shelterin complex (telosome) components which is proposed to lead to shelterin complex disassembly in ALT-associated PML bodies (APBs). Required for recruitment of telomeres to PML nuclear bodies. SMC5-SMC6 complex may prevent transcription of episomal DNA, such as circular viral DNA genome (PubMed:26983541).
