Primary Identifier | MGI:2156841 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 170472 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable DNA helicase activity; RNA polymerase II complex binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to camptothecin; negative regulation of double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; and replication-born double-strand break repair via sister chromatid exchange. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of transcription preinitiation complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; nucleus; and replication fork. Orthologous to human RECQL5 (RecQ like helicase 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene express elevated levels of sister chromatid exchange due to a failure to suppress crossovers. [provided by MGI curators] |
