Function:
1) role in DNA damage response pathway associated with activation of homologous recombination & DNA double-strand break repair
2) binds to single & double stranded DNA
3) capable of aggregating DNA
4) binds RNA
5) isoform 2 interacts with RAD51
Compartment:
- nucleus
- colocalizes with RAD51 to multiple nuclear foci
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=3
Expression:
1) highly expressed in testis & thymus
2) lower levels in colon & small intestine
