Smc5 - structural maintenance of chromosomes 5 Gene

Predicted to enable ATP binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including DNA recombination; cellular senescence; and positive regulation of maintenance of mitotic sister chromatid cohesion. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including chromosome condensation; internal peptidyl-lysine acetylation; and protein localization to chromosome, centromeric region. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell junction; chromosome; and nuclear body. Predicted to be part of Smc5-Smc6 complex. Orthologous to human SMC5 (structural maintenance of chromosomes 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
