|  | Protein FULL name: DNA repair protein RAD51 homolog 1 isoform 1 [Homo sapiens]. RAD51 (Homo sapiens) is product of expression of
    RAD51
    gene.
 
 Human diseases related to this protein:
 
 RAD51 is involved in:
 
 HRR  in Homo sapiens
 
 Keywords:
 
 
 
 FUNCTION: May participate in a common DNA damage response pathway
      associated with the activation of homologous recombination and
      double-strand break repair. Binds to single and double stranded
      DNA and exhibits DNA-dependent ATPase activity. Underwinds duplex
      DNA and forms helical nucleoprotein filaments.
 
 SUBUNIT: Interacts with BRCA1, BRCA2 and either directly or
      indirectly with p53. Interacts with XRCC3, RAD54L and RAD54B. Part
      of a complex with RAD51C and RAD51B. Interacts with RAD51AP1 and
      RAD51AP2. Interacts with CHEK1/CHK1, and this may require prior
      phosphorylation of CHEK1. Interacts with the MND1-PSMC3IP
      heterodimer (By similarity). Interacts with OBFC2B.

      P04637:TP53; NbExp=1; IntAct=EBI-297202, EBI-366083;
 
 SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Note=Colocalizes with RAD51AP1 to
      multiple nuclear foci upon induction of DNA damage.
 
 TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highly expressed in testis and thymus,
      followed by small intestine, placenta, colon, pancreas and ovary.
      Weakly expressed in breast.
 
 PTM: Phosphorylated. Phosphorylation of Thr-309 by CHEK1/CHK1 may
      enhance association with chromatin at sites of DNA damage and
      promote DNA repair by homologous recombination.
 
 DISEASE: Defects in RAD51 are a cause of susceptibility to breast
      cancer (BC) [MIM:114480]. A common malignancy originating from
      breast epithelial tissue. Breast neoplasms can be distinguished by
      their histologic pattern. Invasive ductal carcinoma is by far the
      most common type. Breast cancer is etiologically and genetically
      heterogeneous. Important genetic factors have been indicated by
      familial occurrence and bilateral involvement. Mutations at more
      than one locus can be involved in different families or even in
      the same case.
 
 SIMILARITY: Belongs to the recA family. RAD51 subfamily.
 
 SIMILARITY: Contains 1 HhH domain.
