Rad52 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and single-stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in DNA double-strand break processing involved in repair via single-strand annealing. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to oxidative stress and double-strand break repair via homologous recombination. Predicted to be part of protein-DNA complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); lung cancer (multiple); mucoepidermoid carcinoma; and nicotine dependence. Orthologous to human RAD52 (RAD52 homolog, DNA repair protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Rad52 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
