Product Specs

Introduction
RAD51D belongs to the RAD51 protein family, which shares significant similarity with bacterial RecA and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad51. These proteins play a crucial role in DNA repair and homologous recombination. Specifically, RAD51D interacts with other RAD51 family members to form a complex that facilitates homologous pairing between single- and double-stranded DNA, contributing to the early stages of DNA recombinational repair.
Description

A 23 amino acid His-tag is fused to the N-terminus of the protein. Purification is achieved using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
A clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized through filtration.
Formulation
The RAD51D (1-328) solution is provided at a concentration of 0.25mg/ml. It is formulated in a buffer containing 20mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.1M NaCl, 10% glycerol, and 1mM DTT.
Stability
For short-term storage (up to 2-4 weeks), the solution can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage, it is recommended to freeze the solution at -20°C. To ensure long-term stability, adding a carrier protein like HSA or BSA (0.1%) is advisable. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to maintain protein integrity.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Expression

The RAD51D (1-328 a.a.) (Human Recombinant) protein is a human full-length protein expressed in Escherichia coli. It consists of 328 amino acids and has a molecular weight of approximately 37.4 kDa . The recombinant version of this protein is often tagged with a His-tag at the N-terminus to facilitate purification and detection .

Function and Mechanism

RAD51D is involved in the HRR pathway, which is essential for repairing double-stranded DNA breaks. It binds to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and exhibits DNA-dependent ATPase activity. RAD51D is a part of the BCDX2 complex, which also includes RAD51B, RAD51C, and XRCC2. This complex acts in the BRCA1-BRCA2-dependent HR pathway, playing a role downstream of BRCA2 recruitment and upstream of RAD51 recruitment .

The BCDX2 complex predominantly binds to the intersection of the four duplex arms of the Holliday junction and the junction of replication forks. It has been reported to bind single-stranded DNA, single-stranded gaps in duplex DNA, and specifically to nicks in duplex DNA. Additionally, RAD51D is involved in telomere maintenance .

Clinical Significance

Mutations in the RAD51D gene are associated with a high risk of ovarian cancer. Studies have shown that mutations in RAD51D, along with BRIP1 and RAD51C, significantly increase the susceptibility to ovarian cancer. These mutations are considered high-risk factors for ovarian cancer, second only to BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations .

Applications

The recombinant RAD51D (1-328 a.a.) protein is used in various research applications, including:

  • SDS-PAGE: To analyze the protein’s purity and molecular weight.
  • Mass Spectrometry (MS): For detailed protein characterization.
  • Functional Studies: To investigate the protein’s role in DNA repair and its interaction with other proteins in the HRR pathway .
