About EXO5

Cytogenetic location: 1p34.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:40,508,767-40,516,038 (from NCBI)

This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants) and 117 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in lymph node (RPKM 2.5), appendix (RPKM 2.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)-specific exonuclease that can slide along the DNA before cutting it. However, human replication protein A binds ssDNA and restricts sliding of the encoded protein, providing a 5'-directionality to the Enzyme. This protein localizes to nuclear repair loci after DNA damage. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]
