About Rad51

Chromosome 2: 118,943,274-118,977,926 forward strand.GRCm39:CM000995.3

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 220 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 11 phenotypes. Biased expression in placenta adult (RPKM 14.2), liver E14 (RPKM 13.5) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

Enables chromatin binding activity and single-stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in telomere maintenance via recombination and telomere maintenance via telomere lengthening. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including DNA metabolic process; cellular response to hydroxyurea; and chromosome organization. Located in chromosome, telomeric region; cytoplasm; and lateral element. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; compacted morula; gonad; hemolymphoid system; and paravertebral ganglion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Fanconi anemia complementation group R; breast cancer; congenital mirror movement disorder; and ovarian Cancer. Orthologous to human RAD51 (RAD51 recombinase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
