Functiondisease:Met-241 is associated with the development of cutaneous malignant melanoma.,function:Involved in the homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway of double-stranded DNA, thought to repair chromosomal fragmentation, translocations and deletions.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Belongs to the recA family. RAD51 subfamily.,subunit:Interacts with RAD51C and RAD51. Part of a complex consisting of RAD51B, RAD51C, RAD51D, XRCC2 and XRCC3.,
Subcellular LocationNucleus. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Mitochondrion. Accumulates in discrete nuclear foci prior to DNA damage, and these foci persist throughout the time course of DNA repair.

BackgroundX-ray repair cross complementing 3(XRCC3) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a member of the RecA/Rad51-related protein family that participates in homologous recombination to maintain chromosome stability and repair DNA damage. This gene functionally complements Chinese hamster irs1SF, a repair-deficient mutant that exhibits hypersensitivity to a number of different DNA-damaging agents and is chromosomally unstable. A rare microsatellite polymorphism in this gene is associated with cancer in patients of varying radiosensitivity. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
