About Xrcc3

Summary

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. Allelic variants in the human gene are associated with susceptibility to breast Cancer and cutaneous malignant melanoma. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
