Mouse Anti-RECQL5 Recombinant Antibody (C-9) (CBMAB-R2020-CN)

RecQ Like Helicase 5

The protein encoded by this gene is a helicase that is important for genome stability. The encoded protein also prevents aberrant homologous recombination by displacing RAD51 from ssDNA. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]

DNA helicase that plays an important role in DNA replication, transcription and repair (PubMed:20643585, PubMed:22973052).
Binds to the RNA polymerase II subunit POLR2A during transcription elongation and suppresses transcription-associated genomic instability (PubMed:20231364).
Associates also with POLR1A and enforces the stability of ribosomal DNA arrays (PubMed:27502483).
Plays an important role in mitotic chromosome separation after cross-over events and cell cycle progress (PubMed:22013166).
Mechanistically, removes RAD51 filaments protecting stalled replication forks at common fragile sites and stimulates MUS81-EME1 endonuclease leading to mitotic DNA synthesis (PubMed:28575661).
Required for efficient DNA repair, including repair of inter-strand cross-links (PubMed:23715498).
Stimulates DNA decatenation mediated by TOP2A. Prevents sister chromatid exchange and homologous recombination.

Isoform Beta
Nucleus, nucleoplasm
Nucleus
Recruited to sites of DNA damage, such as single-strand breaks and inter-strand cross-links, and at stalled replication forks. Re-localizes from the nucleolus into the nucleus after replicative stress and significantly associates with WRN during S-phase (PubMed:23180761).
Isoform Alpha
Cytoplasm
Isoform Gamma
Cytoplasm

Phosphorylated by CDK1 at Ser-727; this phosphorylation is required for RECQL5-mediated disruption of RAD51 filaments on stalled replication forks.
