XPA Antibody (3H55) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a light chain antibody that detects Xeroderma pigmentosum group A (XPA) in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and immunohistochemistry. XPA plays a crucial role in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway, which is essential for repairing DNA damage caused by ultraviolet (UV) light. XPA protein is primarily located in the nucleus, where XPA coordinates the assembly of a preincision complex necessary for the recognition and excision of damaged DNA. XPA′s nuclear localization is directly involved in maintaining genomic stability; without proper localization and function, cells are unable to effectively repair UV-induced DNA lesions, leading to an increased risk of skin cancers in individuals with xeroderma pigmentosum. XPA′s ability to form a homodimer in the absence of DNA and enhanced binding efficiency when dimerically bound underscores the regulatory mechanisms that cells employ to modulate activity based on DNA damage levels. Anti-XPA antibody (3H55) serves as an invaluable tool for researchers studying the molecular mechanisms of DNA repair and the implications of XPA deficiencies in cancer biology.
