Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: N/A
- UniProt Summary: Single-stranded DNA-dependent ATPase and 5' to 3' DNA helicase (PubMed:11751861). Involved in the repair of DNA cross- links and double-strand break (DSB) resistance. Participates in FANCD2-mediated repair. Forms a complex with POLN polymerase that participates in homologous recombination (HR) repair and is essential for cellular protection against DNA cross-links (PubMed:19995904). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11751861, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19995904}.
