NHEJ1
nonhomologous end-joining factor 1
|
|
On chromosome: 2q35
Known also as: XLF; FLJ12610;
Double-strand breaks in DNA result from genotoxic stresses and are among the most damaging of DNA lesions. This gene encodes a DNA repair factor essential for the nonhomologous end-joining pathway, which preferentially mediates repair of double-stranded breaks. Mutations in this gene cause different kinds of severe combined immunodeficiency disorders. [provided by RefSeq]
