Rabbit Anti-EME1 (Crossover Junction Endonuclease EME1, EME 1, EME-1, hMMS4, MMS4 Homolog)
Crossover junction endonuclease EME1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the EME1 gene. It is mapped to 17q21.33. This gene encodes a protein that complexes with methyl methanesulfonate-sensitive UV-sensitive 81 protein to form an endonuclease complex. The encoded protein interacts with specifc DNA structures including nicked Holliday junctions, 3'-flap structures and aberrant replication fork structures. Also, this protein may be involved in repairing DNA damage and in maintaining genomic stability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
