Gene information for KIN (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID22944
Official gene symbolKIN
Full nameKIN, antigenic determinant of recA protein homolog (mouse)
Aliases,BTCD,KIN17,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear protein that forms intranuclear foci during proliferation and is redistributed in the nucleoplasm during the cell cycle. Short-wave ultraviolet light provokes the relocalization of the protein, suggesting its participation in the cellular response to DNA damage. Originally selected based on protein-binding with RecA antibodies, the mouse protein presents a limited similarity with a functional domain of the bacterial RecA protein, a characteristic shared by this human ortholog.
