    basic FUNCTION
  • involved in recombination and DNA repair
  • SWI5-SFR1 overcomes, at least partly, the inhibitory effect of RPA, representing a novel class of mediator (
  • SWI5-SFR1 is a newly identified complex required for genomic integrity in mammalian cells with a specific role in the repair of DNA strand breaks
  • SWI5-SFR1 has an evolutionarily conserved function in homologous recombination repair
  • SWI5-SFR1 may potentially play important roles both in mitotic and meiotic homologous recombination reactions
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • complexing with DMC1 and RAD51 for a role in interhomolog recombination during meiosis
  • SWI5-SFR1 complex plays an important role in homologous recombination
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interacting with SWI5 (C-terminal SWI5 domain of SWI5 and the middle coiled-coil region of SFR1 dictate this conserved interaction)
  • SWI5-SFR1 directly interacts with RAD51 and plays a critical role in homologous recombination repair
