Description

bifunctional ATP-dependent DNA helicase/ssDNA endodeoxyribonuclease DNA2

Gene Summary

Enables catalytic activity, acting on DNA and telomeric G-quadruplex DNA binding activity. Involved in DNA metabolic process and G-quadruplex DNA unwinding. Located in chromosome, telomeric region; cytoplasm; and nucleus. Used to study Bloom syndrome and Werner syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Seckel syndrome 8; autosomal dominant progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions 6; isolated growth hormone deficiency type IA; and mitochondrial myopathy. Orthologous to human DNA2 (DNA replication helicase/nuclease 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
