MYCGR3G40048 — Zymoseptoria tritici

Summary

MYCGR3G40048 (ku80) on Zymoseptoria tritici chromosome 4 encodes the ATP-dependent DNA helicase II subunit 2 (Ku80), a protein with ATP hydrolase, helicase, and damaged DNA binding activities. It is annotated to the Ku70:Ku80 complex and localises to the nucleus, cytosol, and telomeric chromosome regions. The gene is associated with DNA repair via non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), homologous recombination, DNA recombination, and telomere maintenance. It also binds telomeres and double-stranded DNA. The encoded protein contains Ku_PK_bind, Ku_C_sf, Ku70/Ku80 beta-barrel, Ku_N, and vWFA domains.
