NTH (Endonuclease III Like 1, NTHL1, OCTS3) |
|

Description: Oxygen radicals damage chromosonal DNA causing cell death and inducing mutations. Although a major focus of oxidatively damaged DNA has centered on the repair of 8-oxo-G, a number of other damaged DNA sites are created by free-radical attack on DNA. The human NTH1 repair protein is one enzyme that has been shown to act on a large number of these other oxidatively damaged DNA sites (2). A homologue of E. coli Endonuclease III, NTH is a DNA glycosylase with apurinic/apyrimidinic lyase activity. The NTH protein has broad substrate specificity, including numerous ring saturation and fragmentation products of pyrimidines. Research indicates NTH plays a crucial role in removal of oxidative base lesions in mitochondrial DNA (3). Application(s): Suitable for use in Western Blot where a band at ~37kD is seen on SDS-PAGE. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1,000-1:5,000 (ECL) Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%). Freeze at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. |
