UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q8C551 (Q8C551)
Gene Name:
Rad51ap1
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse)
Function: Structure-specific DNA-binding protein involved in DNA repair by promoting RAD51-mediated homologous recombination. Acts by stimulating D-Loop formation by RAD51: specifically enhances joint molecule formation through its structure-specific DNA interaction and its interaction with RAD51. Binds single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and secondary DNA structures, such as D-loop structures: has a strong preference for branched-DNA structures that are obligatory intermediates during joint molecule formation. Cooperates with WDR48/UAF1 to stimulate RAD51-mediated homologous recombination: both WDR48/UAF1 and RAD51AP1 have coordinated role in DNA-binding during homologous recombination and DNA repair. WDR48/UAF1 and RAD51AP1 also have a coordinated role in DNA-binding to promote USP1-mediated deubiquitination of FANCD2. Also involved in meiosis by promoting DMC1-mediated homologous meiotic recombination
