Summary

DMC1 (DNA meiotic recombinase 1, HGNC:2927) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 22q13.1, encoding Meiotic recombination protein DMC1/LIM15 homolog (Q14565). Participates in meiotic recombination, specifically in homologous strand assimilation, which is required for the resolution of meiotic double-strand breaks.

This gene encodes a member of the superfamily of recombinases (also called DNA strand-exchange proteins). Recombinases are important for repairing double-strand DNA breaks during mitosis and meiosis. This protein, which is evolutionarily conserved, is reported to be essential for meiotic homologous recombination and may thus play an important role in generating diversity of genetic information. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
