Predicted to enable DNA translocase activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in double-strand break repair via homologous recombination and reciprocal meiotic recombination. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to DNA damage stimulus; determination of adult lifespan; and response to ionizing radiation. Located in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal cancer and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Orthologous to human RAD54B (RAD54 homolog B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
