Function

RAD32_SCHPO Required for the repair of double strand breaks (DSB) caused by gamma and UV radiation. May work in conjunction with rhp51.NBS1_SCHPO Required for DNA damage repair and S-phase DNA damage checkpoint. Involved in telomere length maintenance and maintenance of chromatin structure.^{[1] [2]}
