RAD23A Polyclonal antibody

RAD23A, also named as HHR23A, belongs to the RAD23 family. It is a multiubiquitin chain receptor involved in modulation of proteasomal degradation. RAD23A binds to 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin chains in a length-dependent manner and with a lower affinity to 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains. It is proposed to be capable to bind simultaneously to the 26S proteasome and to polyubiquitinated substrates and to deliver ubiquitinated proteins to the proteasome. It is involved in nucleotide excision repair and is thought to be functional equivalent for RAD23B in global genome nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) by association with XPC. In vitro, the XPC:RAD23A dimer has NER activity. Can stabilize XPC. It is also involved in vpr-dependent replication of HIV-1 in non-proliferating cells and primary macrophages and is required for the association of HIV-1 vpr with the host proteasome. This antibody is a rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against full length RAD23A of human origin.
