Anti-XRCC1

The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the efficient repair of DNA single-strand breaks formed by exposure to ionizing radiation and alkylating agents. This protein interacts with DNA ligase III, polymerase beta and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase to participate in the base excision repair pathway. It may play a role in DNA processing during meiogenesis and recombination in germ cells. A rare microsatellite polymorphism in this gene is associated with cancer in patients of varying radiosensitivity.

Negatively regulates ADP- ribosyltransferase activity of PARP1 during base-excision repair in order to prevent excessive PARP1 activity (PubMed:34102106, PubMed:34811483, PubMed:28002403). Recognizes and binds poly-ADP-ribose chains: specifically binds auto-poly-ADP-ribosylated PARP1, limiting its activity (PubMed:14500814, PubMed:34102106, PubMed:34811483).
