Function: - single stranded DNA-dependent ATP-dependent helicase - role in chromosome translocation - the DNA helicase 2 complex binds preferentially to fork-like ends of double-stranded DNA in a cell cycle- dependent manner - it works in the 3'-5' direction - binding to DNA may be mediated by XRCC6 - role in DNA non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) required for double-strand break repair & V(D)J recombination - the XRCC5/6 dimer acts as a regulatory subunit of the DNA-dependent protein kinase complex DNA-PK by increasing the affinity of the catalytic subunit PRKDC to DNA by 100-fold - the XRCC5/XRCC6 dimer is probably involved in stabilizing broken DNA ends & bringing them together - assembly of the DNA-PK complex to DNA ends is required for the NHEJ ligation step - in association with NAA15, the XRCC5/XRCC6 dimer binds to the osteocalcin promoter & activates osteocalcin expression - the XRCC5/XRCC6 dimer probably acts as a 5'-deoxyribose-5-phosphate lyase, by catalyzing the beta-elimination of 5'-deoxyribose-5-phosphate at an abasic site near double-strand breaks - XRCC5 probably acts as the catalytic subunit, removing abasic sites from the termini associated with DNA strand breaks, prior to ligation - phosphorylated on Ser - phosphorylation by PRKDC may enhance helicase activity - sumoylated - heterodimer of a 70 kD & a 80 kD subunit - the dimer associates in a DNA-dependent manner with PRKDC to form the DNA- dependent protein kinase complex DNA-PK, & with the LIG4-XRCC4 complex - the dimer also associates with NAA15, - this complex displays DNA binding activity towards the osteocalcin FGF response element (OCFRE) - the 80 kD subunit binds to the osteoblast-specific transcription factors MSX2 & RUNX2 - interacts with ELF3 - may interact with APLF Structure: - the EEXXXDDL motif is required for the interaction with catalytic subunit PRKDC & its recruitment to sites of DNA damage - belongs to the ku80 family - contains 1 Ku domain Compartment: nucleus, chromosome Expression: - expression increases during promyelocyte differentiation - induced In osteoblasts, by FGF2 Pathology: - individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) & related disorders produce extremely large amounts of autoantibodies to XRCC6 & XRCC5
