Amino acids 500-946 form the expressed segment for recombinant Human WRN. This WRN protein is theoretically predicted to have a molecular weight of 58.3 kDa. Expression of this WRN protein is conducted in e.coli. The WRN gene fragment has been modified by fusing the N-terminal 10xHis tag and C-terminal Myc tag, providing convenience in detecting and purifying the recombinant WRN protein during the following stages.The human bifunctional 3'-5' exonuclease/ATP-dependent helicase WRN is a crucial protein involved in DNA metabolism and repair. It plays a central role in maintaining genome stability by participating in various DNA repair pathways, including base excision repair and double-strand break repair. Additionally, WRN is implicated in telomere maintenance, ensuring the integrity of chromosome ends. Mutations in the WRN gene are associated with Werner syndrome, a rare premature aging disorder. Ongoing research on WRN aims to elucidate its precise functions, unravel its intricate role in cellular processes, and explore potential therapeutic strategies for conditions related to DNA damage and aging.

WRN
Target Full Name
Bifunctional 3'-5' exonuclease/ATP-dependent helicase WRN
Target Function
Multifunctional enzyme that has both magnesium and ATP-dependent DNA-helicase activity and 3'->5' exonuclease activity towards double-stranded DNA with a 5'-overhang. Has no nuclease activity towards single-stranded DNA or blunt-ended double-stranded DNA. Binds preferentially to DNA substrates containing alternate secondary structures, such as replication forks and Holliday junctions. May play an important role in the dissociation of joint DNA molecules that can arise as products of homologous recombination, at stalled replication forks or during DNA repair. Alleviates stalling of DNA polymerases at the site of DNA lesions. Important for genomic integrity. Plays a role in the formation of DNA replication focal centers; stably associates with foci elements generating binding sites for RP-A. Plays a role in double-strand break repair after gamma-irradiation.

Target Background
This gene encodes a member of the RecQ subfamily of DNA helicase proteins. The encoded nuclear protein is important in the maintenance of genome stability and plays a role in DNA repair, replication, transcription and telomere maintenance. This protein contains a N-terminal 3' to 5' exonuclease domain, an ATP-dependent helicase domain and RQC (RecQ helicase conserved region) domain in its central region, and a C-terminal HRDC (helicase RNase D C-terminal) domain and nuclear localization signal. Defects in this gene are the cause of Werner syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by accelerated aging and an elevated risk for certain cancers.
