Description
RAD54L2 (RAD54-like 2) is a protein-coding gene that encodes a member of the SNF2/RAD54 family of DNA helicases. The protein is involved in DNA repair, chromatin remodeling, and transcriptional regulation. It functions as an ATP-dependent DNA helicase and interacts with various nuclear receptors, modulating their activity. RAD54L2 is implicated in homologous recombination repair and cellular responses to DNA damage.

Protein Summary
RAD54L2 is a 1,209-amino acid protein belonging to the SNF2/RAD54 helicase family. It contains a conserved helicase ATP-binding domain and a C-terminal domain involved in nuclear receptor interaction. The protein localizes to the nucleus and exhibits ATP-dependent DNA helicase activity, unwinding DNA in the 3' to 5' direction. It participates in homologous recombination repair by promoting Rad51 filament formation and strand exchange. Additionally, RAD54L2 acts as a coactivator for androgen receptor and other nuclear receptors, linking DNA repair to transcriptional regulation.
