- Description
- Predicted to enable ATP binding activity; DNA binding activity; and DNA ligase (ATP) activity. Acts upstream of or within double-strand break repair via nonhomologous end joining. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of DNA ligase IV complex and DNA-dependent protein kinase-DNA ligase 4 complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including DNA ligase IV deficiency; colorectal cancer; multiple myeloma; pancreatic cancer; and prostate cancer. Orthologous to human LIG4 (DNA ligase 4).
