Anti-Ku86 antibodies are protein reagents that detect specific antigens. The Ku86 antigen is another term for the human protein X-ray repair cross complementing 5, encoded by the XRCC5 gene. The protein is known to function in brain development and DNA damage pathways, among other biological roles. Canonically, it has an amino acid length of 732 residues and a mass of 82.7 kilodaltons. Its subcellular localization is in the nucleus and it is widely expressed in many tissue types. The Ku86 protein is a member of the Ku80 protein family. Other alias names for Ku86 include KARP-1, KARP-1, and KARP1. Western Blot is the most common application for the Ku86 antibodies listed below. ELISA, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
