This antibody recognizes a dimer of two proteins of 70 kDa (Ku70) and ~80 kDa (Ku80), identified as two subunits of Ku. Antbody KU729 recognizes a conformational epitope of the Ku70 + Ku80 dimer, which is destroyed during Western blotting. The Ku70 + Ku80 dimer is important for function of a 460 kDa DNA-dependent protein kinase. Ku protein plays a role in cell signaling, proliferation, DNA repair, replication, transcriptional activation, and apoptosis.
