EME2 - essential meiotic structure-specific endonuclease subunit 2 Gene
Also Known as SLX2B; gs125
Species: Homo sapiens
About EME2
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 138 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in prostate (RPKM 3.4), duodenum (RPKM 3.1) and 24 other tissues.
Summary
EME2 forms a heterodimer with MUS81 (MIM 606591) that functions as an XPF (MIM 278760)-type FLAP/fork Endonuclease in DNA repair (Ciccia et al., 2007 [PubMed 17289582]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
