Xrcc6

Protein FULL name:

X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 6 [Mus musculus].


Xrcc6 (Mus musculus) is product of expression of Xrcc6 gene.






FUNCTION: Single stranded DNA-dependent ATP-dependent helicase. Has a role in chromosome translocation. The DNA helicase II complex binds preferentially to fork-like ends of double-stranded DNA in a cell cycle-dependent manner. It works in the 3'-5' direction. Binding to DNA may be mediated by XRCC6. Involved in DNA non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) required for double-strand break repair and V(D)J recombination. The XRCC5/6 dimer acts as regulatory subunit of the DNA-dependent protein kinase complex DNA-PK by increasing the affinity of the catalytic subunit PRKDC to DNA by 100-fold. The XRCC5/6 dimer is probably involved in stabilizing broken DNA ends and bringing them together. The assembly of the DNA-PK complex to DNA ends is required for the NHEJ ligation step. Required for osteocalcin gene expression. Probably also acts as a 5'-deoxyribose-5-phosphate lyase (5'-dRP lyase), by catalyzing the beta-elimination of the 5' deoxyribose- 5-phosphate at an abasic site near double-strand breaks. 5'-dRP lyase activity allows to 'clean' the termini of abasic sites, a class of nucleotide damage commonly associated with strand breaks, before such broken ends can be joined.

SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of a 70 kDa (XRCC6) and a 80 kDa (XRCC5) subunit. The dimer associates in a DNA-dependent manner with PRKDC to form the DNA-dependent protein kinase complex DNA-PK, and with the LIG4-XRCC4 complex. The dimer also associates with NAA15, and this complex binds to the osteocalcin promoter and activates osteocalcin expression. In addition, XRCC6 interacts with the osteoblast-specific transcription factors MSX2, RUNX2 and DLX5. Interacts with ELF3. Interacts with XRCC6BP1 (By similarity).

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus.

DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expression increases during promyelocyte differentiation.

PTM: Phosphorylation by PRKDC may enhance helicase activity. Phosphorylation of Ser-49 does not affect DNA repair (By similarity).

MISCELLANEOUS: In osteoblasts from XRCC6 knockout mice, osteocalcin gene expression is nearly abolished.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ku70 family.

SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Ku domain.

SIMILARITY: Contains 1 SAP domain.
