RAG1 recombination activating 1

Gene ID: 5896, updated on 15-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: RAG-1; RNF74

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is involved in activation of immunoglobulin V-D-J recombination. The encoded protein is involved in recognition of the DNA substrate, but stable binding and cleavage activity also requires RAG2. Defects in this gene can be the cause of several diseases.
