Replication Protein A2 Antibody / RPA32

Recognizes a protein of 34kDa, identified as a subunit of Replication Protein A (RPA) (also known as human single-stranded DNA binding protein, or HSSB) . RPA from human cells is a stable heterotrimer of 70kDa, 32-34kDa, and 11-14kDa subunits (RPA70, RPA32, and RPA14 respectively) . It is involved in DNA replication, repair, and recombination. RPA is required for the SV40 large tumor antigen-catalyzed unwinding of SV40 DNA and stimulates DNA polymerase (pol) alpha and delta. RPA34 is phosphorylated at the G1/S boundary of the cell cycle or upon exposure of cells to DNA damage-inducing agents including ionizing and UV radiation.
