Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

RAD17 is a DNA damage cell cycle checkpoint protein. RAD17 forms a complex with four small replication factor c (RFC) subunits namely, Rfc2, Rfc3, Rfc4 and Rfc5. This complex, called RFC-related complex, acts as a clamp loader and detects DNA damage. Once DNA damage is detected, RFC-related complex recruits 9-1-1 complex (Rad9, Rad1 and Hus1). This, in turn, activates ATM, ATR, Chk1 and Chk2 kinases. Therefore, RAD17 plays an essential role in maintaining genomic stability. RAD17 might be a potential tumor suppressor gene and may have a role in the progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) by contributing to genomic instability.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

General description

Cell cycle checkpoint protein RAD17 is encoded by the gene hRAD17, in humans. hRAD17 is a 69kDa protein, which is made of 590 amino acids. RAD17 was first identified in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and its homolog in humans is hRAD17. Human RAD17 gene is localized to the chromosomal region 5q13.
