General annotation (Comments)

Function

Participates in a common DNA damage response pathway associated with the activation of homologous recombination and double-strand break repair. Binds to single and double stranded DNA and exhibits DNA-dependent ATPase activity. Underwinds duplex DNA and forms helical nucleoprotein filaments. Plays a role in regulating mitochondrial DNA copy number under conditions of oxidative stress in the presence of RAD51C and XRCC3 By similarity. Ref.6

Subunit structure

Interacts with BRCA1, BRCA2 and either directly or indirectly with p53. Interacts with XRCC3, RAD54L and RAD54B. Part of a complex with RAD51C and RAD51B. Interacts with RAD51AP1 and RAD51AP2. Interacts with CHEK1, and this may require prior phosphorylation of CHEK1 By similarity. Interacts with the MND1-PSMC3IP heterodimer. Interacts with NABP2 By similarity. Interacts with RPA1, PALB2 and RAD51 By similarity. Interacts with hyperphosphorylated RPA2; this interaction is necessary for efficient recruitment to chromatin in response to DNA damage By similarity. Interacts with SWSAP1; involved in homologous recombination repair. Interacts with PARPBP; interfering with the formation of the RAD51-DNA homologous recombination structure By similarity. Interacts with SWI5/SAE3, and at lower level with SFR1/MEIR5. Ref.6 Ref.7

Subcellular location

Nucleus By similarity. Cytoplasm By similarity. Cytoplasmperinuclear region By similarity. Mitochondrion matrix By similarity. Note: Colocalizes with RAD51AP1 and RPA2 to multiple nuclear foci upon induction of DNA damage. DNA damage induces an increase in nuclear levels By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in ovary and testis. Expressed in the brain. Ref.8

Developmental stage

Expression in the brain is strongest at day E12, particularly in the cortical ventricular zone. In the cortex of newborn mice (P0), RAD51 is mainly present in the subplate and, in lesser amounts, in layer V. It is detected in a subpopulation of corticospinal axons at the pyramidal decussation in 2-day-old (P2) mice. Ref.8

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylated. Phosphorylation of Thr-309 by CHEK1 may enhance association with chromatin at sites of DNA damage and promote DNA repair by homologous recombination By similarity.

Miscellaneous

The nucleus of a mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells contains on average 4.7 x 105 molecules.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the RecA family. RAD51 subfamily.

Contains 1 HhH domain.
