IPR029710

Description

IPR029710 is a DNA ligase 4.

<p>DNA ligase 4 (LIG4) is involved in DNA double-strand break repair [[cite:PUB00070667]]. In higher eukaryotes it forms a complex with XRCC4, which is responsible for the ligation step during the DNA-PK-dependent non-homologous end joining (D-NHEJ) [[cite:PUB00070668], [cite:PUB00070670], [cite:PUB00106867]]. The Ku component of the DNA-PK (DNA-dependent protein kinase) complex contributes to the recruitment of the LIG4-XRCC4 complex at the DNA break site [[cite:PUB00070668]].</p>

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Molecular function DNA binding Any molecular function by which a gene product interacts selectively and non-covalently with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).
Molecular function DNA ligase (ATP) activity Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + deoxyribonucleotide(n) + deoxyribonucleotide(m) = AMP + diphosphate + deoxyribonucleotide(n+m).
Molecular function ATP binding Interacting selectively and non-covalently with ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
Biological process DNA repair The process of restoring DNA after damage. Genomes are subject to damage by chemical and physical agents in the environment (e.g. UV and ionizing radiations, chemical mutagens, fungal and bacterial toxins, etc.) and by free radicals or alkylating agents endogenously generated in metabolism. DNA is also damaged because of errors during its replication. A variety of different DNA repair pathways have been reported that include direct reversal, base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, photoreactivation, bypass, double-strand break repair pathway, and mismatch repair pathway.
Biological process DNA ligation involved in DNA repair The re-formation of a broken phosphodiester bond in the DNA backbone, carried out by DNA ligase, that contributes to DNA repair.
