The SMC6 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC020556) is specifically designed for research involving the SMC6 protein, a critical component of the SMC5/6 complex involved in DNA repair and genome stability. This antibody, produced in rabbits, is highly reactive with human samples and is validated for use in applications such as Western blot and immunofluorescence.SMC6 is essential for maintaining genomic integrity by facilitating DNA repair processes and ensuring proper chromosome segregation during cell division. Dysregulation of SMC6 has been implicated in a variety of human diseases, including cancer and developmental disorders.
Therefore, studying the function of SMC6 is crucial for advancing our understanding of these conditions and developing targeted therapies.By using the SMC6 Polyclonal Antibody, researchers can effectively detect and analyze the expression of SMC6 in various cell types, providing valuable insights into its role in genome maintenance and disease development. This antibody is a valuable tool for studies in molecular biology, genetics, and cancer research, offering a deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying DNA repair and genome stability.

Background:
Structural maintenance of chromosomes protein 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SMC6 gene. Core component of the SMC5-SMC6 complex, a complex involved in DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination. The complex may promote sister chromatid homologous recombination by recruiting the SMC1-SMC3 cohesin complex to double-strand breaks.
Synonyms:
structural maintenance of chromosomes 6
UniProt Protein Function:
SMC6L1: Core component of the SMC5-SMC6 complex, a complex involved in DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination. The complex may promote sister chromatid homologous recombination by recruiting the SMC1-SMC3 cohesin complex to double-strand breaks. The complex is required for telomere maintenance via recombination in ALT (alternative lengthening of telomeres) cell lines and mediates sumoylation of shelterin complex (telosome) components which is proposed to lead to shelterin complex disassembly in ALT-associated PML bodies (APBs). Required for recruitment of telomeres to PML nuclear bodies. Belongs to the SMC family. SMC6 subfamily. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.Protein type: DNA repair, damageChromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 2p24.2Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; chromosome, telomeric region; PML body; nucleolus; intracellular; nucleusMolecular Function: protein binding; ATP bindingBiological Process: telomere maintenance via recombination; double-strand break repair via homologous recombination
