Recql - RecQ protein-like

Predicted to enable 3'-5' DNA helicase activity; ATP-dependent DNA/DNA annealing activity; and four-way junction helicase activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA unwinding involved in DNA replication and double-strand break repair via homologous recombination. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in chromosome and cytoplasm. Is expressed in cerebral cortex subventricular zone. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma; lung cancer; and pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human RECQL (RecQ like helicase).
