Anti-RPA1 Monoclonal antibody, clone 3I21 (DCABH-3680) This product is for research use only and is not intended for diagnostic use. PRODUCT INFORMATION Product Overview Mouse monoclonal to RPA70 Antigen Description Plays an essential role in several cellular processes in DNA metabolism including replication, recombination and DNA repair. Binds and subsequently stabilizes single-stranded DNA intermediates and thus prevents complementary DNA from reannealing.Functions as component of the alternative replication protein A complex (aRPA). aRPA binds single-stranded DNA and probably plays a role in DNA repair; it does not support chromosomal DNA replication and cell cycle progression through S-phase. In vitro, aRPA cannot promote efficient priming by DNA polymerase alpha but supports DNA polymerase delta synthesis in the presence of PCNA and replication factor C (RFC), the dual incision/excision reaction of nucleotide excision repair and RAD51-dependent strand exchange.

Methods: High throughput screening assay and analyses of cell growth, cell cycle, apoptosis, cDNA microarray, BrdU incorporation and gene expression were performed. Results: Ailanthone (Aila) suppressed NSCLC cell growth and colony formation in vitro and inhibited NSCLC tumour growth in subcutaneously xenografted and orthotopic lung tumour models, leading to prolonged survival of tumour-bearing mice. Moreover, Aila induced cell cycle arrest in a dose-independent manner but did not induce apoptosis in all NSCLC cells.

Expression of an Ortholog of Replication Protein A1 (RPA1)
Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA Vol. 94, pp. 9979–9983, September 1997 Plant Biology Expression of an ortholog of replication protein A1 (RPA1) is induced by gibberellin in deepwater rice (cell divisionyintercalary meristemyinternodal growthyOryza sativa) ESTHER VAN DER KNAAP*, SANDRINE JAGOUEIX*†, AND HANS KENDE‡ Michigan State University–Department of Energy Plant Research Laboratory, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824-1312 Contributed by Hans Kende, July 16, 1997 ABSTRACT Internodes of deepwater rice are induced to antagonist of GA action in rice (6). Growth of the internode grow rapidly when plants become submerged. This adaptation is, ultimately, promoted by GA (5). enables deepwater rice to keep part of its foliage above the The primary target tissue of GA is the intercalary meristem rising flood waters during the monsoon season and to avoid of the internode, where GA enhances cell division activity and drowning. This growth response is, ultimately, elicited by the cell elongation (5, 7, 8). The intercalary meristem is a zone of plant hormone gibberellin (GA). The primary target tissue for about 3 mm in length and is located at the base of the internode GA action is the intercalary meristem of the internode. Using (9). Cells are displaced from the intercalary meristem into the differential display of mRNA, we have isolated a number of elongation zone, where they reach their final size. In GA- genes whose expression in the intercalary meristem is regu- treated internodes, the final cell length is about three to four lated by GA. The product of one of these genes was identified times longer than in control internodes (5, 7).

Identification of Proteins Involved in the Maintenance of Genome Stability
Identification of Proteins Involved in the Maintenance of Genome Stability by Edith Hang Yu Cheng A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Biochemistry University of Toronto ©Copyright by Edith Cheng2015 Identification of Proteins Involved in the Maintenance of Genome Stability Edith Cheng Doctor of Philosophy Department of Biochemistry University of Toronto 2015 Abstract Aberrant changes to the genome structure underlie numerous human diseases such as cancers. The functional characterization ofgenesand proteins that maintain chromosome stability will be important in understanding disease etiology and developing therapeutics. I took a multi-faceted approach to identify and characterize genes involved in the maintenance of genome stability. As biological pathways involved in genome maintenance are highly conserved in evolution, results from model organisms can greatly facilitate functional discovery in humans. In S. cerevisiae, I identified 47 essential gene depletions with elevated levels of spontaneous DNA damage foci and 92 depletions that caused elevated levels of chromosome rearrangements. Of these, a core subset of 15 DNA replication genes demonstrated both phenotypes when depleted. Analysis of rearrangement breakpoints revealed enrichment at yeast fragile sites, Ty retrotransposons, early origins of replication and replication termination sites. Together, thishighlighted the integral role of DNA replicationin genome maintenance. In light of my findings in S. cerevisiae, I identified a list of 153 human proteins that interact with the nascentDNA at replication forks, using a DNA pull down strategy (iPOND) in human cell lines. As a complementary approach for identifying human proteins involved in genome ii maintenance, I usedthe BioID techniqueto discernin vivo proteins proximal to the human BLM- TOP3A-RMI1-RMI2 genome stability complex, which has an emerging role in DNA replication progression.

HPV Microarrays
Supplementary Methods Tissue sample process. Each tissue sample was cryosectioned, and selected sections stained with hematoxylin/eosin, and reviewed to determine tumor content, pathological status, and freedom from necrosis and freezing artifacts. Epithelial cells from all normal samples and tumor cells from HNC or CC samples with less than 80% tumor were laser capture microdissected from adjacent sections using a PixCell II LCM system (Arcturus, Mountain View, CA) (Supplementary Table 2). For guidance, an adjacent section was briefly stained with hematoxylin to visualize tissue structure. RNA amplification and labeling. Total RNA was extracted from sectioned and/or microdissected samples as follows: 1 ml of TRIzol (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) was added to each tissue sample, homogenized by passing through a 20 gauge needle, and added to 0.2 ml chloroform. After centrifugation at 20,000 xg for 20 min at 4oC, RNA in the aqueous phase was precipitated with an equal volume of isopropanol for 30 min at 4oC, pelleted, and washed twice with cold 70% ethanol. Double strand (ds) cDNA was synthesized from this RNA using a SuperScript ds cDNA synthesis kit (Invitrogen) and T7 promoter-linked oligo (dT)24. Complementary RNA (cRNA) was synthesized from T7 promoter-linked ds cDNA using a MEGAscript high transcription kit (Ambion, Austin, TX). To obtain a sufficient cRNA for ≥2 microarray hybridizations, this amplification process was repeated. Second round cRNA was biotin labeled using a BioArray High Yield RNA Transcript Labeling Kit (Enzo Life Sciences, Farmingdale, NY) and stored at -80oC until hybridized. cRNA quality and quantity was determined by gel electrophoresis and UV spectrophotometry.
