---|---|
Primary Accession | Q2NKX8 |
Reactivity | Rat, Pig, Bovine |
Host | Rabbit |
Clonality | Polyclonal |
Calculated MW | 141 KDa |
Physical State | Liquid |
Immunogen | KLH conjugated synthetic peptide derived from human ERCC6L |
Epitope Specificity | 301-400/1250 |
Isotype | IgG |
Purity | affinity purified by Protein A |
Buffer | 0.01M TBS (pH7.4) with 1% BSA, 0.02% Proclin300 and 50% Glycerol. |
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION | Chromosome, centromere. Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore. Note=Localizes to kinetochores, inner centromeres and thin threads connecting separating chromosomes even during anaphase. In prometaphase cells, it mostly concentrates in between kinetochores. In metaphase, it localizes to numerous thin threads that stretch between sister kinetochores of the aligned chromosomes and are composed of catenated centromeric DNA. Evolution from inner centromeres to thin threads takes place in response to tension. Resolution of thin threads requires topoisomerase 2-alpha (TOP2A) after anaphase onset. |
SIMILARITY | Belongs to the SNF2/RAD54 helicase family. Contains 1 helicase ATP-binding domain. Contains 1 helicase C-terminal domain. Contains 2 TPR repeats. |
SUBUNIT | Interacts with PLK1, which phosphorylates it. Both proteins are mutually dependent on each other for correct subcellular localization. |
Post-translational modifications | Phosphorylation by PLK1 prevents the association with chromosome arms and restricts its localization to the kinetochore-centromere region. |
Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
Background Descriptions | ERCC6L belongs to the SNF2 ATPase family and acts as an essential component of the spindle assembly checkpoint. It contributes to the mitotic checkpoint by recruiting MAD2 to kinetochores and monitoring tension on centromeric chromatin. It acts as a tension sensor that associates with catenated DNA which is stretched under tension until it is resolved during anaphase. ERCC6L may also play a role in the teratogenic action of alcohol. |

Other Names | DNA excision repair protein ERCC-6-like, 3.6.4.12, ATP-dependent helicase ERCC6-like, PLK1-interacting checkpoint helicase, Tumor antigen BJ-HCC-15, ERCC6L |
Dilution | IHC-P=1:100-500,IHC-F=1:100-500,IF=1:100-500,ELISA=1:5000-10000 |
Format | 0.01M TBS(pH7.4), 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide and 50% Glyce |
Storage | Store at -20 ℃ for one year. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. When reconstituted in sterile pH 7.4 0.01M PBS or diluent of antibody the antibody is stable for at least two weeks at 2-4 ℃. |

Function | DNA helicase that acts as a tension sensor that associates with catenated DNA which is stretched under tension until it is resolved during anaphase (PubMed:17218258, PubMed:23973328). Functions as ATP-dependent DNA translocase (PubMed:23973328, PubMed:28977671). Can promote Holliday junction branch migration (in vitro) (PubMed:23973328). |
