这个基因是rad51家族的一员。rad51家族成员与细菌reca和酿酒酵母rad51高度相似，参与dna的同源重组和修复。该蛋白可与其他Rad51副驾驶相互作用，据报道对Holliday连接的分辨率很重要。这种基因突变与范科尼贫血样综合征有关。该基因是位于17q23染色体区域的四个基因之一，在乳腺肿瘤中常有扩增。这四个基因在扩增过程中的过度表达已经被观察到，并提示可能在肿瘤发展中起作用。选择性剪接导致多个转录变体。[由RefSeq提供，2013年7月]
This gene is a member of the RAD51 family. RAD51 family members are highly similar to bacterial RecA and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad51 and are known to be involved in the homologous recombination and repair of DNA. This protein can interact with other RAD51 paralogs and is reported to be important for Holliday junction resolution. Mutations in this gene are associated with Fanconi anemia-like syndrome. This gene is one of four localized to a region of chromosome 17q23 where amplification occurs frequently in breast tumors. Overexpression of the four genes during amplification has been observed and suggests a possible role in tumor progression. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
