Other Information

**Key Characteristics** 1. **Function**: XRCC2 is a DNA repair protein that participates in the HRR pathway, which is responsible for repairing DSBs in DNA. 2. **Expression**: XRCC2 is highly expressed in various cell types, including neural progenitor cells, cardiac endothelial cells, and intestinal epithelial cells. 3. **Interactions**: XRCC2 interacts with other proteins, such as BRCA2, PALB2, and RAD51, to facilitate HRR. 4. **Pathway involvement**: XRCC2 is involved in the HRR pathway, which is responsible for repairing DSBs in DNA. **Pathways and Functions** 1. **Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) pathway**: XRCC2 participates in the HRR pathway, which is responsible for repairing DSBs in DNA. The HRR pathway involves the recognition of DSBs by proteins such as BRCA2 and PALB2, followed by the recruitment of repair proteins, including XRCC2, to the repair site. 2. **DNA double-strand break repair**: XRCC2 is involved in the repair of DSBs in DNA, which is essential for maintaining genome stability. 3. **Genome stability**: XRCC2 plays a crucial role in maintaining genome stability by repairing DSBs and preventing mutations that can lead to cancer. 4. **Cell cycle regulation**: XRCC2 is involved in the regulation of the cell cycle, particularly in the G2/M phase, where it participates in the repair of DSBs. **Clinical Significance** 1. **Cancer**: XRCC2 dysregulation has been implicated in several types of cancer, including breast, ovarian, and colon cancer. 2. **Neurodegenerative disorders**: XRCC2 has been implicated in neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, where it plays a role in maintaining genome stability. 3. **Developmental abnormalities**: XRCC2 dysregulation has been implicated in developmental abnormalities, such as embryonic development and somitogenesis. 4. **Radiation sensitivity**: XRCC2 is involved in the response to ionizing radiation, and its dysregulation can lead to increased sensitivity to radiation. In conclusion, XRCC2 is a crucial gene involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks through the HRR pathway. Its dysregulation has been implicated in several diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and developmental abnormalities. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of XRCC2 in maintaining genome stability and its clinical significance.

Database document:

This is a preview of the gene's schema. Only a few entries are kept for 'singleCellExpressions,' 'mRNAExpressions,' and other large data arrays for visualization purposes. You can zoom in with the mouse wheel for a closer view, and the text will adjust automatically if necessary. For the full schema, download it here.
