Non-homologous end joining factor IFFO1

Definition:

Nuclear matrix protein involved in the immobilization of broken DNA ends and the suppression of chromosome translocation during DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Interacts with the nuclear lamina component LMNA, resulting in the formation of a nucleoskeleton that relocalizes to the DSB sites in a XRCC4-dependent manner and promotes the immobilization of the broken ends, thereby preventing chromosome translocation. Acts as a scaffold that allows the DNA repair protein XRCC4 and LMNA to assemble into a complex at the DSB sites.
