DNA Ligase I plays an essential role in DNA replication and repair, catalyzing the final phosphodiester bond formation that joins Okazaki fragments during lagging strand synthesis and seals nicks generated during base excision repair. As a critical enzyme in maintaining genomic integrity, LIG1 has become an important target for researchers investigating DNA damage responses, cell cycle regulation, and the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer development.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated from clone 7B2, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding experimental workflows require. Because the antibody sequence is defined and produced recombinantly, researchers can expect uniform performance across lots, eliminating the variability often encountered with traditional hybridoma-derived antibodies. The rabbit IgG format, raised against a synthetic peptide from human DNA Ligase I, provides high specificity for detecting this essential nuclear enzyme.
Validation studies demonstrate reliable performance across multiple applications. In western blot analysis, the antibody detects LIG1 in both HeLa and HepG2 whole cell lysates at dilutions ranging from 1:500 to 1:5000. The observed band at approximately 140 kDa runs higher than the predicted molecular weights (102, 89, 99 kDa), a shift commonly attributed to post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation, or a significant enhancement of its molecular sieving effect in the SDS-PAGE gel and a noticeable slowdown in its migration speed resulting from the high content of proline in the LIG1 protein. Immunohistochemistry validation confirms nuclear staining patterns in paraffin-embedded human lung cancer and placenta tissues at 1:50 to 1:200 dilutions using standard citrate buffer antigen retrieval.
For researchers exploring epigenetics, nuclear signaling, or DNA repair pathways, this antibody provides a dependable tool for characterizing LIG1 expression and localization across diverse experimental contexts.
