As part of the heterotrimeric replication protein A complex (RPA/RP-A), binds and stabilizes single-stranded DNA intermediates that form during DNA replication or upon DNA stress. It prevents their reannealing and in parallel, recruits and activates different proteins and complexes involved in DNA metabolism. Thereby, it plays an essential role both in DNA replication and the cellular response to DNA damage. In the cellular response to DNA damage, the RPA complex controls DNA repair and DNA damage checkpoint activation. Through recruitment of ATRIP activates the ATR kinase a master regulator of the DNA damage response. It is required for the recruitment of the DNA double-strand break repair factors RAD51 and RAD52 to chromatin in response to DNA damage. Also recruits to sites of DNA damage proteins like XPA and XPG that are involved in nucleotide excision repair and is required for this mechanism of DNA repair. Also plays a role in base excision repair (BER) probably through interaction with UNG. Also recruits SMARCAL1/HARP, which is involved in replication fork restart, to sites of DNA damage. May also play a role in telomere maintenance. RPA stimulates 5'-3' helicase activity of BRIP1/FANCJ (PubMed:17596542).

This mouse monoclonal chimeric antibody has been engineered from a RabMAb parent antibody (Anti-RPA32/RPA2 antibody [EPR2877Y] ab76420). By necessity, some rabbit sequence is retained as part of the variable domain. When multiplexing with other rabbit-derived antibodies, using cross absorbed Fc-reactive secondary antibodies are recommended.

RPA32/RPA2 Western blot staining of HeLa (Human cervix adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) whole cell lysate using mouse Anti-RPA32/RPA2 antibody
False colour image of Western blot: Anti-RPA32/RPA2 antibody [EPR2877Y] - Mouse IgG1 (Chimeric) (ab324313) staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in black; Rabbit anti-alpha tubulin loading control staining, shown in magenta. In Western blot, ab324313 was shown to bind specifically to RPA2 protein in HeLa whole cell lysate. HeLa (Human cervix adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) whole cell lysate 20ug. Samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat Anti-Mouse IgG Fc (HRP) preadsorbed (Goat Anti-Mouse IgG Fc (HRP) preadsorbed ab98717) at 1:10000 and Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 680RD at 1:20000.

RPA32/RPA2 Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence staining of HeLa cells using mouse Anti-RPA32/RPA2 antibody
ab324313 staining RPA2 in HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at 4°C with ab324313 at 5µg/ml (shown in green) and Alexa Fluor® 594 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [EP1332Y] - Microtubule Marker ab202272, Alexa Fluor® 594 Rabbit monoclonal [EP1332Y] to alpha Tubulin - Microtubule Marker (shown in pseudocolour magenta). Cells were then incubated with Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150117, Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution. Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). Also suitable in cells fixed with 100% methanol (5 min).Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown.
RPA32/RPA2 Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) staining of Human colon using mouse Anti-RPA32/RPA2 antibody
Immunofluorescence staining of RPA2 in sections of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human colon.
Performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate (pH6.0) for 20 minutes. The section was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab324313 at 1/500 dilution and then incubated for 1 hour with Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150117 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium®.
Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.
