Anti-ATRIP (Ser239) Antibody

ATRIP, ATR interacting protein, binds to ATR to regulate ATR expression, and is an essential component of the DNA damage checkpoint pathway (Cortez et al, 2001). ATR is recruited to DNA lesions in part through its association with ATRIP, which in turn interacts with the single-stranded DNA binding protein RPA (Ball et al, 2007). DNA replication forks may stall as a result of DNA damage causing phosphorylation of several proteins, including BRCA1 when colocalizing with ATR/ATRIP complex and RPA (Venere et al, 2007). The DNA replication fork stall coincides with BRCA1 directly phosphorylating ATRIP at Ser-239 (Venere et al, 2007).
