Function |
May participate in a common DNA damage response pathway associated with the activation of homologous recombination and double-strand break repair. Functionally cooperates with PALB2 in promoting of D-loop formation by RAD51. Binds to single and double stranded DNA, and is capable of aggregating DNA. Also binds RNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20871616, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9396801}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Nucleus {ECO:0000250}. Note=Colocalizes with RAD51 to multiple nuclear foci. {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in testis and thymus. Lower levels in colon and small intestine. Little or no expression in spleen, prostate, ovary and peripheral blood leukocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9396801}.
