UniProt functional annotation for Q6ZQJ5



	UniProt functional annotation for Q6ZQJ5

UniProt code: Q6ZQJ5.

Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse).

Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Mus; Mus.

Function: Key enzyme involved in DNA replication and DNA repair in nucleus and mitochondrion. Involved in Okazaki fragments processing by cleaving long flaps that escape FEN1: flaps that are longer than 27 nucleotides are coated by replication protein A complex (RPA), leading to recruit DNA2 which cleaves the flap until it is too short to bind RPA and becomes a substrate for FEN1. Also involved in 5'-end resection of DNA during double-strand break (DSB) repair: recruited by BLM and mediates the cleavage of 5'-ssDNA, while the 3'-ssDNA cleavage is prevented by the presence of RPA. Also involved in DNA replication checkpoint independently of Okazaki fragments processing. Possesses different enzymatic activities, such as single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)- dependent ATPase, 5'-3' helicase and endonuclease activities. While the ATPase and endonuclease activities are well-defined and play a key role in Okazaki fragments processing and DSB repair, the 5'-3' DNA helicase activity is subject to debate. According to various reports, the helicase activity is weak and its function remains largely unclear. Helicase activity may promote the motion of DNA2 on the flap, helping the nuclease function (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subunit: Interacts with BLM and WDHD1. {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000250}. Mitochondrion {ECO:0000250}.

Ptm: Acetylated by EP300, leading to stimulate the 5'-3' endonuclease, the 5'-3' helicase and DNA-dependent ATPase activities, possibly by increasing DNA substrate affinity. {ECO:0000250}.

Similarity: Belongs to the DNA2/NAM7 helicase family. {ECO:0000305}.

Sequence caution: Sequence=BAC97861.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
