Rabbit anti-Human REV1 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9UBZ9

Target Species

Human

Target Name

REV1

Target Full Name

DNA repair protein REV1

Target Function

Deoxycytidyl transferase involved in DNA repair. Transfers a dCMP residue from dCTP to the 3'-end of a DNA primer in a template-dependent reaction. May assist in the first step in the bypass of abasic lesions by the insertion of a nucleotide opposite the lesion. Required for normal induction of mutations by physical and chemical agents.

Target Subcellular Location

Nucleus.

Target Protein Families

DNA polymerase type-Y family

Target Tissue Specificity

Ubiquitous.

Target Background

This gene encodes a protein with similarity to the S. cerevisiae mutagenesis protein Rev1. The Rev1 proteins contain a BRCT domain, which is important in protein-protein interactions. A suggested role for the human Rev1-like protein is as a scaffold that recruits DNA polymerases involved in translesion synthesis (TLS) of damaged DNA.
