Biological function summary
XRCC2 contributes to cellular maintenance by repairing DNA double-strand breaks through the homologous recombination pathway. It participates in the Rad51 paralog complex alongside other paralogs like Rad51B Rad51C Rad51D and XRCC3. This complex ensures precise repair and re-ligation of damaged DNA by assisting in strand exchange and stabilization. Such actions highlight XRCC2's role in preserving cell genetic integrity and preventing mutations.
Pathways
Homologous recombination and DNA repair are integral processes where XRCC2 operates. The homologous recombination pathway is critically linked with the maintenance of chromosome integrity during cell division. XRCC2 by cooperating with proteins like RAD51 and BRCA2 forms an essential part of recombinational DNA repair. Its interactions are necessary for orchestrating the repair process ensuring seamless recovery of the genetic code after disruptions.

General info
Function
Involved in the homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway of double-stranded DNA, thought to repair chromosomal fragmentation, translocations and deletions. Part of the RAD51 paralog protein complex BCDX2 which acts in the BRCA1-BRCA2-dependent HR pathway. Upon DNA damage, BCDX2 acts downstream of BRCA2 recruitment and upstream of RAD51 recruitment. BCDX2 binds predominantly to the intersection of the four duplex arms of the Holliday junction and to junction of replication forks. The BCDX2 complex was originally reported to bind single-stranded DNA, single-stranded gaps in duplex DNA and specifically to nicks in duplex DNA.
