Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway:** RAD51C is a key player in the HRR pathway, which is responsible for repairing DSBs in DNA. 2. **DNA binding:** RAD51C binds to DNA, specifically to the Holliday junction intermediate, which is a structure formed during homologous recombination. 3. **Complex formation:** RAD51C forms a complex with RAD51, RAD51D, and XRCC2, which is essential for the resolution of DSBs. 4. **Meiosis-specific expression:** RAD51C is highly expressed in cells undergoing meiosis, particularly in oogonial cells, male germ cells, and primordial germ cells. 5. **Tissue-specific expression:** RAD51C is also expressed in other tissues, including erythroid progenitor cells, placental villous trophoblasts, and large pre-B-II cells. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway:** RAD51C is involved in the HRR pathway, which is responsible for repairing DSBs in DNA. 2. **DNA double-strand break repair:** RAD51C plays a crucial role in the resolution of DSBs through homologous recombination. 3. **Meiotic recombination:** RAD51C is essential for meiotic recombination, which is the process by which genetic material is exchanged between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. 4. **Telomere maintenance:** RAD51C is also involved in telomere maintenance via recombination, which is the process by which telomeres are lengthened and maintained. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Breast cancer:** Mutations or alterations in RAD51C expression have been linked to breast cancer, particularly in cases where BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations are present. 2. **Ovarian cancer:** RAD51C has also been implicated in ovarian cancer, particularly in cases where BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations are present. 3. **Other conditions:** RAD51C has also been linked to other conditions, including Fanconi anemia, Bloom syndrome, and ataxia-telangiectasia. 4. **Immunological disorders:** RAD51C has also been implicated in immunological disorders, including autoimmune diseases and immunodeficiency disorders. In conclusion, RAD51C is a critical gene involved in the homologous recombination repair pathway, which plays a pivotal role in maintaining genome stability. Mutations or alterations in RAD51C expression have been linked to various diseases, including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and other conditions related to DNA repair defects. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of RAD51C in human disease and to develop effective therapeutic strategies for targeting this gene.
