Background Information
Two major pathways, homologous recombination (HR) and nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ), counteract one of themost toxic lesions, the DSB. The core protein complex mediating NHEJ in mammals includes DNA ligase IV (Lig4). Lig4 belongs to an ATP-dependent DNA ligase family, and joins single-strand brdownloadeaks in a double-stranded polydeoxynucleotide in an ATP-dependent reaction. The complex Lig4-XRCC4 is responsible for the NHEJ ligation step, and XRCC4 enhances the joining activity of Lig4.

Publications
What published studies show
The LIG4 Polyclonal antibody (catalog #12695-1-AP) has 32 citations. These appear in journals including Science, Cell Host & Microbe, Cancer Research, Nature Communications, Nucleic Acids Research, Biomaterials, Cell Death & Differentiation, Oncogene, British Journal of Cancer, Cells, iScience, and PLoS One. Research fields center on DNA repair—particularly non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)—alongside DNA damage response, radiation sensitivity, and cancer biology, with applications in glioblastoma, colorectal, lung, and breast cancers. Most studies used Western blot, with some immunofluorescence and co-immunoprecipitation.
