Protein function (UniProt)

DNA excision repair protein ERCC-6-like 2

Promotes double-strand break (DSB) end-joining and facilitates programmed recombination by controlling how DNA ends are joined in a spatially oriented manner during repair (By similarity). Also plays a role in DNA repair by restricting DNA end resection in double strand break (DSB) repair (PubMed:24507776, PubMed:37014751). Facilitates replication of complex DNA regions and regulates the maintenance of chromatin structure (PubMed:37014751)
