Anti-p95 NBS1 Antibody Picoband® (monoclonal, 5D7A1)

P95 NBS1, also known as NBN or Nibrin, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the NBN gene. Nibrin is a protein associated with the repair of double strand breaks (DSBs) which pose serious damage to a genome. It is a 754 amino acid protein identified as a member of the NBS1/hMre11/RAD50 (N/M/R, more commonly referred to asMRN) double strand DNA break repair complex. This complex recognizes DNA damage and rapidly relocates to DSB sites and forms nuclear foci. It also has a role in regulation of N/M/R (MRN) protein complex activity which includes end-processing of both physiological and mutagenic DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) .

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human p95 NBS1, different from the related mouse sequence by three amino acids, and from the related rat sequence by five amino acids.

Isoform 2 and isoform 3 are expressed in spleen, bone marrow, cerebral and cerebellar cortex. Isoform 2 is expressed in spleen, pancreas and placenta (at protein level) . Isoform 3 is expressed in lung, pancreas and spleen (at protein level) . Isoform 4 is expressed in lung and pancreas (at protein level) .

The major proteolytic product p15 BID allows the release of cytochrome c. Isoform 1, isoform 2 and isoform 4 induce ICE-like proteases and apoptosis. Isoform 3 does not induce apoptosis. Counters the protective effect of Bcl-2.
