Background
Function | FUNCTION: Plays an important role in homologous strand exchange, a key step in DNA repair through homologous recombination (HR) (PubMed:28575658). Binds to single and double-stranded DNA and exhibits DNA-dependent ATPase activity. Catalyzes the recognition of homology and strand exchange between homologous DNA partners to form a joint molecule between a processed DNA break and the repair template. Binds to single-stranded DNA in an ATP-dependent manner to form nucleoprotein filaments which are essential for the homology search and strand exchange (PubMed:26681308). Part of a PALB2-scaffolded HR complex containing BRCA2 and RAD51C and which is thought to play a role in DNA repair by HR. Plays a role in regulating mitochondrial DNA copy number under conditions of oxidative stress in the presence of RAD51C and XRCC3. Also involved in interstrand cross-link repair (PubMed:26253028). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12205100, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12442171, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18417535, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20231364, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20348101, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20413593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23509288, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23754376, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26253028, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26681308, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28575658}. |
