Description

Overview of Phospho-TP53BP1 (Ser25) Antibody

Target: Phosphorylated 53BP1 at Ser25 (UniProt ID: Q12888 in humans).
Host Species: Rabbit (polyclonal antibody).
Applications: Western blot (WB), immunohistochemistry (IHC), immunoprecipitation (IP) .
Specificity: Detects endogenous 53BP1 only when phosphorylated at Ser25/Ser29. Cross-reactivity confirmed in human, mouse, and rat samples .

Key Features:

  • Role in DNA Damage Response: 53BP1 phosphorylation at Ser25 is ATM kinase-dependent and occurs after DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) .

  • Epitope Recognition: The antibody specifically binds to the phosphorylated Ser25 epitope, which is part of a conserved Ser/Thr-Gln (S/T-Q) motif targeted by ATM .

Mechanistic Insights

  • Interaction with hPTIP: Phosphorylation of 53BP1 at Ser25 is essential for binding to hPTIP (human Pax transactivation domain-interacting protein) via its BRCT domains. This interaction facilitates ATM signaling and DNA repair .

  • RIF1 Recruitment: Ser25 phosphorylation contributes to RIF1 (RAP1-interacting factor 1) recruitment, which regulates DNA repair pathway choice by promoting non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) over homologous recombination (HR) .

  • Dephosphorylation by PP5: Protein phosphatase 5 (PP5) removes phosphate groups from Ser25 and Ser1778 of 53BP1, modulating its retention at DNA damage sites and NHEJ efficiency .

Functional Implications

  • Cells expressing non-phosphorylatable 53BP1 (Ser25Ala mutants) exhibit hypersensitivity to DNA damage and impaired checkpoint activation .

  • Ser25 phosphorylation does not affect 53BP1’s recruitment to DSBs but is critical for downstream signaling and repair complex assembly .

Target Background

Function
TP53BP1, also known as 53BP1, is a double-strand break (DSB) repair protein that plays a crucial role in responding to DNA damage, telomere dynamics, and class-switch recombination (CSR) during antibody genesis. It is a key player in the repair of DSBs by promoting non-homologous end joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair, effectively counteracting the homologous recombination (HR) repair protein BRCA1. Upon encountering DSBs, ATM-mediated phosphorylation triggers its interaction with RIF1 and its dissociation from NUDT16L1/TIRR, leading to its recruitment to DSB sites. TP53BP1 is recruited to these sites by recognizing and binding to histone H2A monoubiquitinated at Lys-15 (H2AK15Ub) and histone H4 dimethylated at Lys-20 (H4K20me2), two histone marks characteristic of DSBs. Its involvement in immunoglobulin class-switch recombination (CSR) during antibody genesis, a process involving DNA DSB generation, is critical. It contributes to the repair and correct orientation of the broken DNA ends during CSR. Notably, it is not essential for classic NHEJ and V(D)J recombination. TP53BP1 further promotes NHEJ of dysfunctional telomeres through its interaction with PAXIP1.
