Immunogen | A synthesized peptide derived from human PNK / PNKP |
Description | Catalyzes the phosphorylation of DNA at 5'-hydroxyl termini and can dephosphorylate its 3'-phosphate termini. Plays an important function in DNA repair following ionizing radiation or oxidative damage. |
Storage Condition and Buffer | Rabbit IgG in phosphate buffered saline , pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol. Store at +4°C short term. Store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze / thaw cycle. |
Name | PNKP {ECO:0000303|PubMed:10446192, ECO:0000312|HGNC:HGNC:9154} |

Function | Plays a key role in the repair of DNA damage, functioning as part of both the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) and base excision repair (BER) pathways (PubMed:10446192, PubMed:10446193, PubMed:15385968, PubMed:20852255, PubMed:28453785). Through its two catalytic activities, PNK ensures that DNA termini are compatible with extension and ligation by either removing 3'-phosphates from, or by phosphorylating 5'-hydroxyl groups on, the ribose sugar of the DNA backbone (PubMed:10446192, PubMed:10446193). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Chromosome. Note=Localizes to site of double-strand breaks. |
Tissue Location | Expressed in many tissues with highest expression in spleen and testis, and lowest expression in small intestine (PubMed:10446192). Expressed in higher amount in pancreas, heart and kidney and at lower levels in brain, lung and liver (PubMed:10446193) |
