Anti-RFC5 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein replication factor C subunit 5. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 340 amino acid residues and a mass of 38.5 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the nucleus. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. A member of the Activator 1 small subunits protein family, RFC5 is known to be involved with DNA repair and DNA replication. Synonyms for this target antigen include A1 36 kDa subunit, RF-C 36 kDa subunit, RFC, 36.5 kD subunit, replication factor C (activator 1) 5, 36.5kDa, replication factor C, 36-kDa subunit, and RFC36. RFC5 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some RFC5 antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
