GeneID: 7518 Human XRCC4

Swiss-port # Q13426 Human DNA repair protein XRCC4

Gene Symbol XRCC4
Gene Full Name X-ray repair complementing defective repair in Chinese hamster cells 4
Background The protein encoded by this gene functions together with DNA ligase IV and the DNA-dependent protein kinase in the repair of DNA double-strand break by non-homologous end joining and the completion of V(D)J recombination events. The non-homologous end-joining pathway is required both for normal development and for suppression of tumors. This gene functionally complements XR-1 Chinese hamster ovary cell mutant, which is impaired in DNA double-strand breaks produced by ionizing radiation and restriction enzymes. Alternative transcription initiation and alternative splicing generates several transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]
Function Involved in DNA non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) required for double-strand break repair and V(D)J recombination. Binds to DNA and to DNA ligase IV (LIG4). The LIG4-XRCC4 complex is responsible for the NHEJ ligation step, and XRCC4 enhances the joining activity of LIG4. Binding of the LIG4-XRCC4 complex to DNA ends is dependent on the assembly of the DNA-dependent protein kinase complex DNA-PK to these DNA ends. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Nucleus. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 38 kDa
PTM Phosphorylated by PRKDC. The phosphorylation seems not to be necessary for binding to DNA. Phosphorylation by CK2 promotes interaction with APTX.

Monoubiquitinated.

Sumoylation at Lys-210 is required for nuclear localization and recombination efficiency. Has no effect on ubiquitination. [UniProt]
