Background
The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the efficient repair of DNA single-strand breaks formed by exposure to ionizing radiation and alkylating agents. This protein interacts with DNA ligase III, polymerase beta and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase to participate in the base excision repair pathway. It may play a role in DNA processing during meiogenesis and recombination in germ cells. A rare microsatellite polymorphism in this gene is associated with cancer in patients of varying radiosensitivity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
function:Corrects defective DNA strand-break repair and sister chromatid exchange following treatment with ionizing radiation and alkylating agents.,polymorphism:Carriers of the polymorphic Gln-399 allele may be at greater risk for tobacco- and age-related DNA damage.,PTM:Phosphorylation of Ser-371 causes dimer dissociation. Phosphorylation by CK2 promotes interaction with APTX and APLF.,PTM:Sumoylated.,similarity:Contains 2 BRCT domains.,subcellular location:Accumulates at sites of DNA damage.,subunit:Homodimer. Interacts with polynucleotide kinase (PNK), DNA polymerase-beta (POLB) and DNA ligase III (LIG3). Interacts with APTX and APLF.,
