MUS81

Protein FULL name:

crossover junction endonuclease MUS81 [Homo sapiens].


MUS81 (Homo sapiens) is product of expression of MUS81 gene.


MUS81 is involved in:

HRR in Homo sapiens
     


Keywords:



FUNCTION: Interacts with EME1 and EME2 to form a DNA structure- specific endonuclease with substrate preference for branched DNA structures with a 5'-end at the branch nick. Typical substrates include 3'-flap structures, replication forks and nicked Holliday junctions. May be required in mitosis for the processing of stalled or collapsed replication forks.

COFACTOR: Magnesium.

SUBUNIT: May self-associate. Interacts with EME1, EME2 and CHEK2. Interacts with BLM, and this interaction may stimulate the endonuclease activity of MUS81. Interacts with BTBD12/SLX4; this interaction is direct and links the MUS81-EME1 complex to SLX4, which may coordinate the action of the structure-specific endonuclease during DNA repair.

INTERACTION: Q8IY92:BTBD12; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-2370806, EBI-2370740;

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus, nucleolus. Note=Recruited to foci of DNA damage in S-phase cells.

TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed.

DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in S phase and G2 phase.

INDUCTION: Up-regulated in cells treated with agents that damage DNA or block replication. This up-regulation seems to be independent of transcription.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the XPF family.

SIMILARITY: Contains 1 ERCC4 domain.

SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAB14953.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;


NCBI GenPept GI number(s): 156151413
Species: Homo sapiens
