      1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
      2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
      3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
      4. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

      7/Ku80

      DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) is a trimeric enzyme that contains a catalytic subunit of 350 kDa (DNA-PKcs) and a heterodimeric regulatory subunit of 70 kDa (Ku70) and 86 kDa (Ku80). DNA-PKcs is inactive alone and depends on the regulatory subunit for subcellular localization and kinase activity. The DNA-PKcs/Ku70/Ku80 complex is involved in V(D)J recombination and DNA double-stranded break repair. Ku70 and Ku80 are abundant nuclear DNA-binding proteins. Besides functioning in a complex with DNA-PKcs, Ku proteins may act in multiple cellular processes including transcriptional regulation, ATPase and helicase activity, alteration in chromatin structure, cell cycle regulation, and maintenance of telomere length. In rat fibroblasts, Ku80 overexpression leads to hypermethylation and silencing of metallothionein gene expression. Ku70-/- and Ku80-/- cells are less resistant to anticancer drug-induced apoptosis, suggesting a role for Ku proteins in the prevention of apoptotic signaling. Thus, Ku70 and Ku80 may have multiple roles during DNA transcription, repair, and maintenance depending on the protein interactions that are involved.

      Purified
      Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
