Nsmce2 - NSE2/MMS21 homolog, SMC5-SMC6 complex SUMO ligase

Predicted to enable SUMO ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including DNA recombination; positive regulation of cell cycle process; and protein sumoylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within DNA recombination; DNA repair; and cell division. Predicted to be located in PML body and chromosome, telomeric region. Predicted to be part of Smc5-Smc6 complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in brain; spermatocyte; and testis. Used to study Bloom syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Seckel syndrome 10. Orthologous to human NSMCE2 (NSE2 (MMS21) homolog, SMC5-SMC6 complex SUMO ligase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
