Summary: Enables crossover junction DNA endonuclease activity. Involved in telomere maintenance via recombination. Acts upstream of or within female meiosis sister chromatid cohesion; meiosis I; and spermatogenesis. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; heart; liver; lung; and spleen. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Fanconi anemia complementation group O and hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome. Orthologous to human RAD51C (RAD51 paralog C).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
