About DMC1

Cytogenetic location: 22q13.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 22:38,509,147-38,570,183 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 188 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 4.8), lymph node (RPKM 0.7) and 8 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the superfamily of recombinases (also called DNA strand-exchange proteins). Recombinases are important for repairing double-strand DNA breaks during mitosis and meiosis. This protein, which is evolutionarily conserved, is reported to be essential for meiotic homologous recombination and may thus play an important role in generating diversity of genetic information. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]
