RAD21 (Double-strand-break repair protein rad21 homolog) is a protein that switches other genes on and off. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver, a tumour suppressor and a DNA repair gene, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Leukaemia, Myeloproliferative neoplasms, Lung cancer and 2 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
As a member of the cohesin complex, involved in sister chromatid cohesion from the time of DNA replication in S phase to their segregation in mitosis, a function that is essential for proper chromosome segregation, post-replicative DNA repair, and the prevention of inappropriate recombination between repetitive regions. The cohesin complex may also play a role in spindle pole assembly during mitosis. In interphase, cohesins may function in the control of gene expression by binding to numerous sites within the genome. May control RUNX1 gene expression. Binds to and represses APOB gene promoter. May play a role in embryonic gut development, possibly through the regulation of enteric neuron development. Location: Nucleus; Nucleus matrix; Chromosome; Chromosome, centromere (UniProt). Locus 8q24.11 (HGNC).
