Primary Identifier | MGI:1915220 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 75764 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable 5'-flap endonuclease activity and crossover junction DNA endonuclease activity. Involved in positive regulation of t-circle formation and t-circle formation. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of Slx1-Slx4 complex. Used to study Fanconi-like syndrome. Orthologous to human SLX1A (SLX1 homolog A, structure-specific endonuclease subunit) and SLX1B (SLX1 homolog B, structure-specific endonuclease subunit). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit mouse embryonic fibroblasts that are more sensitive to DNA interstrand corsslinking agents with increased cell death, chromatide breaks, radial structures and impaired resolution of Holliday junctions.
