小鼠 Slx4 (NM_177472) cDNA克隆

This gene encodes a protein containing a BTB (POZ) domain that comprises a subunit of structure-specific endonucleases. The encoded protein aids in the resolution of DNA secondary structures that arise during the processes of DNA repair and recombination. Knock out of this gene in mouse recapitulates the phenotype of the human disease Fanconi anemia, including blood cytopenia and susceptibility to genomic instability. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]
