Function

Component of the 9-1-1 cell-cycle checkpoint response complex that plays a major role in DNA repair (PubMed:10713044, PubMed:17575048, PubMed:20545769, PubMed:21659603, PubMed:31135337). The 9-1-1 complex is recruited to DNA lesion upon damage by the RAD17-replication factor C (RFC) clamp loader complex (PubMed:21659603). Acts then as a sliding clamp platform on DNA for several proteins involved in long-patch base excision repair (LP-BER) (PubMed:21659603). The 9-1-1 complex stimulates DNA polymerase beta (POLB) activity by increasing its affinity for the 3'-OH end of the primer-template and stabilizes POLB to those sites where LP-BER proceeds; endonuclease FEN1 cleavage activity on substrates with double, nick, or gap flaps of distinct sequences and lengths; and DNA ligase I (LIG1) on long-patch base excision repair substrates (PubMed:21659603). The 9-1-1 complex is necessary for the recruitment of RHNO1 to sites of double-stranded breaks (DSB) occurring during the S phase (PubMed:21659603). RAD9A possesses 3'->5' double stranded DNA exonuclease activity (PubMed:10713044).

Activity summary

Rad9 also known as RAD9A is an important component in the cell cycle checkpoint control and DNA repair mechanisms. The Rad9 protein has a molecular weight of approximately 48 kDa. It functions as a part of the 9-1-1 complex a sensor of DNA damage during cell cycle progression. Rad9 is expressed mainly in the nucleus of cells where it participates in recognizing and binding to DNA at sites of damage. Through its interaction with other checkpoint proteins it facilitates the recruitment and activation of enzymes involved in DNA repair.

Biological function summary

The Rad9 protein plays a central role in maintaining genomic stability. It acts as a DNA damage sensor and is part of the heterotrimeric 9-1-1 complex consisting of Rad9 Rad1 and Hus1. This complex helps signal the presence of DNA damage to halt the cell cycle allowing time for repair mechanisms to resolve issues. Rad9 helps prevent mutations that can lead to cell death or cancer development by ensuring effective DNA repair processes.

Pathways

The Rad9 protein functions in the DNA damage response and cell cycle checkpoint pathways. As part of these pathways it interacts with proteins such as ATR and Chk1 which are responsible for transmitting signals that initiate cell cycle arrest and DNA repair. The 9-1-1 complex with Rad9 as a critical component links the detection of DNA lesions to the activation of downstream effector proteins facilitating an appropriate cellular response to DNA damage.

Associated diseases and disorders

Rad9 has been linked to cancer and other conditions involving genomic instability. Alterations in Rad9 function can impair the DNA damage response leading to the accumulation of mutations that predispose cells to cancerous transformations. Furthermore the protein's relationship with BRCA1 a well-known tumor suppressor gene highlights its role in breast cancer susceptibility. Disruptions in the Rad9 associated pathways may also contribute to other disorders where DNA repair is compromised such as certain types of anemias and other syndromes characterized by genomic instability.

    IHC image of ab70810 staining in human normal cervix formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica BondTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA (pH9, epitope retrieval solution 2) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab70810, 5µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

    For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.
