Background Single-stranded DNA-dependent ATP-dependent helicase.Has a role in chromosome translocation.The DNA helicase II complex binds preferentially to fork-like ends of double-stranded DNA in a cell cycle-dependent manner.It works in the 3'-5' direction.Binding to DNA may be mediated by XRCC6.Involved in DNA non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) required for double-strand break repair and V(D)J recombination.The XRCC5/6 dimer acts as regulatory subunit of the DNA-dependent protein kinase complex DNA-PK by increasing the affinity of the catalytic subunit PRKDC to DNA by 100-fold.The XRCC5/6 dimer is probably involved in stabilizing broken DNA ends and bringing them together.The assembly of the DNA-PK complex to DNA ends is required for the NHEJ ligation step.Required for osteocalcin gene expression.Probably also acts as a 5'-deoxyribose-5-phosphate lyase (5'-dRP lyase),by catalyzing the beta-elimination of the 5' deoxyribose-5-phosphate at an abasic site near double-strand breaks.5'-dRP lyase activity allows to 'clean' the termini of abasic sites,a class of nucleotide damage commonly associated with strand breaks,before such broken ends can be joined.The XRCC5/6 dimer together with APEX1 acts as a negative regulator of transcription.

The DNA helicase II complex binds preferentially to fork-like ends of double-stranded DNA in a cell cycle-dependent manner. It works in the 3'-5' direction. Binding to DNA may be mediated by XRCC6. Involved in DNA non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) required for double-strand break repair and V(D)J recombination.

The XRCC5/6 dimer is probably involved in stabilizing broken DNA ends and bringing them together. The assembly of the DNA-PK complex to DNA ends is required for the NHEJ ligation step. Required for osteocalcin gene expression. Probably also acts as a 5'-deoxyribose-5-phosphate lyase (5'-dRP lyase), by catalyzing the beta-elimination of the 5' deoxyribose-5-phosphate at an abasic site near double-strand breaks. 5'-dRP lyase activity allows to 'clean' the termini of abasic sites, a class of nucleotide damage commonly associated with strand breaks, before such broken ends can be joined.

Research Area Cancer antibody; Gene Regulation antibody
Calculated MW 70 kDa
PTM Phosphorylation by PRKDC may enhance helicase activity. Phosphorylation of Ser-51 does not affect DNA repair.
