Function
Component of the MRN complex, which plays a central role in double-strand break (DSB) repair, DNA recombination, maintenance of telomere integrity and meiosis. The complex possesses single-strand endonuclease activity and double-strand-specific 3'-5' exonuclease activity, which are provided by MRE11A. RAD50 may be required to bind DNA ends and hold them in close proximity. This could facilitate searches for short or long regions of sequence homology in the recombining DNA templates, and may also stimulate the activity of DNA ligases and/or restrict the nuclease activity of MRE11A to prevent nucleolytic degradation past a given point. The complex may also be required for DNA damage signaling via activation of the ATM kinase. In telomeres the MRN complex may modulate t-loop formation. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed at very low level in most tissues, except in testis where it is expressed at higher level. Expressed in fibroblasts. -
Involvement in disease
Defects in RAD50 are the cause of Nijmegen breakage syndrome-like disorder (NBSLD) [MIM:613078]; also called NBS-like disorder or RAD50 deficiency. NBSLD is a disorder similar to Nijmegen breakage syndrome and characterized by chromosomal instability, radiation sensitivity, microcephaly, growth retardation, short stature and bird-like face. Immunodeficiency is absent. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the SMC family. RAD50 subfamily.
Contains 1 zinc-hook domain. -
Domain
The zinc-hook, which separates the large intramolecular coiled coil regions, contains 2 Cys residues that coordinate one molecule of zinc with the help of the 2 Cys residues of the zinc-hook of another RAD50 molecule, thereby forming a V-shaped homodimer. The two heads of the homodimer, which constitute the ATP-binding domain, interact with the MRE11A homodimer. -
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR. -
Cellular localization
Nucleus. Chromosome > telomere. Localizes to discrete nuclear foci after treatment with genotoxic agents. - Information by UniProt

Chromatin was prepared from HeLa (human epithelial cell line from cervix adenocarcinoma) cells treated with 1% methymethanesulfonate (MMS) according to the Abcam X-ChIP protocol. Cells were fixed with formaldehyde for 10min. The ChIP was performed with 25 µg of chromatin, 2 µg of ab208019 (red), and 20 µl of Protein A/G sepharose beads. 2μg of rabbit normal IgG was added to the beads control (gray). The immunoprecipitated DNA was quantified by real time PCR (SYBR green approach). rDNA primers used are located in the region of ribosomal gene loci following the publication PMID:21029860(rDNA 1: rDNA 13017F/13068R ; rDNA 2 : rDNA 1125F/1201R ; rDNA 3 : rDNA 30409F/30566R).
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab208019).
