Supplementary information

The protein RL2 also known as RAD51-like protein 2 or RFS-1 plays a mechanical role in homologous recombination an important process for DNA repair. RL2 has a mass of approximately 37 kDa. It expresses across many tissues in the body indicating its widespread functional importance. This protein shares structural and functional homology with RAD51 a well-studied recombinase suggesting that RL2 has similar interactions with DNA.
Biological function summary

RL2 facilitates the repair of DNA double-strand breaks. It forms part of a complex that promotes the search for homologous sequences which is critical for accurate DNA repair and genome stability. This complex allows for the alignment of homologous DNA strands facilitating strand exchange and repair in eukaryotic cells. The high expression of RL2 in dividing cells aligns with its role in maintaining genomic integrity especially during the cell cycle where DNA replication and repair happen frequently.

Pathways

RL2 integrates into networks that involve DNA damage response pathways including the homologous recombination repair pathway. It interacts closely with other proteins such as RAD51 and BRCA2 both of which are essential players in this pathway ensuring precise DNA repair and therefore cell survival. The RAD51-mediated DNA repair pathway restores genetic material that could otherwise lead to mutagenesis if left unrepaired.

Alterations in RL2 expression link to cancer. As an important participant in DNA repair loss of function or dysregulation may lead to genomic instability a hallmark of cancer. Additionally RL2 interacts with BRCA2 mutations of which are associated with an increased risk of breast and ovarian cancers. Studying RL2's interactions in these contexts may provide insight into tumor development and progression making it a potential target for therapeutic interventions.
