basic FUNCTION
| participating in homologous recombination pathway (HR) |
|
DNA and RNA helicase |
|
mitotic and meiotic recombinaition and double-strand break repair |
|
may function with the DMC1 recombinase, a meiosis-specific RAD51 homolog |
|
may stimulate the DMC1-mediated DNA strand exchange by stabilizing the nucleoprotein filament, which is formed on the ssDNA tails produced at DSB sites during homologous recombination |
|
DNA-dependent ATPase, described to be involved in recombinational repair of DNA damage, including DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) |
|
plays important roles in homologous recombination |
|
synergizes with the DMC1 recombinase to mediate inter-homologue recombination during meiosis |
