Summary
Predicted to enable ATP binding activity; ATP-dependent DNA damage sensor activity; and DNA binding activity. Predicted to contribute to four-way junction DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within DNA repair. Predicted to be part of Rad51C-XRCC3 complex. Predicted to be active in replication fork. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); central nervous system cancer (multiple); familial melanoma; multiple myeloma; and pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human XRCC3 (X-ray repair cross complementing 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
