Facts about Proliferating cell nuclear antigen.
Must be loaded onto DNA in order to be able to stimulate APEX2. Plays a vital role in DNA damage response (DDR) by being conveniently positioned in the replication fork to coordinate DNA replication with DNA repair and DNA damage tolerance pathways (PubMed:24939902).

Nucleus. Colocalizes with CREBBP, EP300 and POLD1 to sites of DNA damage (PubMed:24939902). Forms nuclear foci representing sites of ongoing DNA replication and vary in morphology and number during S phase. Together with APEX2, is redistributed in discrete nuclear foci in presence of oxidative DNA damaging agents.
