Protein
E3 SUMO-protein ligase nse2
Organism
Schizosaccharomyces pombe (strain 972 / ATCC 24843)
Function
Acts as an E3 ligase mediating SUMO/Smt3 attachment to other proteins. Acts in a DNA repair pathway for removal of UV-induced DNA damage that is distinct from classical nucleotide excision repair and in repair of ionizing radiation damage. Functions in homologous recombination repair of DNA double strand breaks and in recovery of stalled replication forks. Plays a critical role in meiosis.
Similarity
Belongs to the NSE2 family.
