Harmonizome 3.0

RAD21 homolog (S. pombe)

The protein encoded by this gene is highly similar to the gene product of Schizosaccharomyces pombe rad21, a gene involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks, as well as in chromatid cohesion during mitosis. This protein is a nuclear phospho-protein, which becomes hyperphosphorylated in cell cycle M phase. The highly regulated association of this protein with mitotic chromatin specifically at the centromere region suggests its role in sister chromatid cohesion in mitotic cells.

RAD21 antisense RNA 1

RAD21-like 1 (S. pombe)

Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in replication-born double-strand break repair via sister chromatid exchange and sister chromatid cohesion. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; homologous chromosome segregation; and seminiferous tubule development. Predicted to be located in chromosome and nucleus. Predicted to be part of meiotic cohesin complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
