Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 19364 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable ATP-dependent DNA damage sensor activity; gamma-tubulin binding activity; and single-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to contribute to four-way junction DNA binding activity. Involved in telomere maintenance. Acts upstream of or within chromosome organization; interstrand cross-link repair; and regulation of cell cycle. Located in chromosome, telomeric region. Is expressed in several structures, including gonad; heart; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and lung. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome. Orthologous to human RAD51D (RAD51 paralog D). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene die as embryos before E11.5. [provided by MGI curators] |
