Description

AI-generatedUnreviewed
This family of proteins is involved in the maintenance of genomic stability through DNA repair and homologous recombination processes. Members of this family bind to single-stranded DNA and form nucleoprotein filaments, which are crucial for the homology search and strand exchange during recombination. They exhibit DNA-dependent ATPase activity and are capable of hydrolyzing ATP in a manner dependent on the presence of single-stranded DNA. These proteins are also essential for the repair of DNA damage, including double-strand breaks, and play a role in meiotic recombination, ensuring proper chromosome segregation. Some family members are specifically involved in meiotic recombination and synaptonemal complex formation, contributing to cell cycle progression during meiosis.
