About Lig4

Summary

Enables ATP binding activity and DNA Ligase (ATP) activity. Involved in double-strand break repair via nonhomologous end joining. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including DNA metabolic process; hemopoiesis; and nervous system development. Part of DNA-dependent protein kinase-DNA Ligase 4 complex. Is expressed in metanephros. Used to study DNA Ligase IV deficiency. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including DNA Ligase IV deficiency; colorectal cancer; high grade glioma; multiple myeloma; and prostate Cancer. Orthologous to human LIG4 (DNA Ligase 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
