basic FUNCTION
| involved in splicing mechanism |
|
eliminating the production of nonsense-containing RNAs, essential for embryonic viability |
|
involved in the DNA damage response (Suraweera 2007) |
|
play a role in the response to oxidative stress, and plays a role in coordinating transcriptional events, in addition to its role in DNA repair (Suraweera 2009) |
|
possible involvement of SETX in telomere stability |
|
role of senataxin in modulating the expression levels and signalling activity of fibroblast growth factor 8 |
|
acts to resolve these R-loop structures and by so doing allows access of the 5 prime-3 prime exonuclease XRN2 at 3 prime cleavage poly(A) sites |
|
colocalizes with TP53BP1, a key DNA damage response protein, and with other factors involved in DNA repair |
|
is targeted to R loops, where it plays an important role at the interface of transcription and the DNA damage response |
|
plays an important role in maintaining genome integrity by coordination of transcription, DNA replication, and the DNA damage response |
|
is essential for spermatogenesis and it functions at two stages in meiosis during crossing-over in homologous recombination and in meiotic sex chromosome inactivation |
|
key roles for senataxin in coordinating meiotic crossing-over with transcription and in gene silencing to protect the integrity of the genome |
|
involved in the response to oxidative stress and likely resolve R loops formed at transcription termination sites or at sites of collisions between the transcription and replication machineries |
