X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 5 encoded by XRCC5 is the 80-kilodalton subunit of the Ku heterodimer protein which is also known as ATP-dependant DNA helicase II or DNA repair protein XRCC5. Ku is the DNA-binding component of the DNA-dependent protein kinase, and it functions together with the DNA ligase IV-XRCC4 complex in the repair of DNA double-strand break by non-homologous end joining and the completion of V(D)J recombination events. XRCC5 functionally complements Chinese hamster xrs-6, a mutant defective in DNA double-strand break repair and in ability to undergo V(D)J recombination. A rare microsatellite polymorphism in XRCC5 is associated with cancer in patients of varying radiosensitivity.

Ku-80 Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of Ku-80 protein.
