Function. Tissue-specific component of the SMC5-SMC6 complex, a complex involved in repair of DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination. The complex may promote sister chromatid homologous recombination by recruiting the SMC1-SMC3 cohesin complex to double-strand breaks. The complex is required for telomere maintenance via recombination and mediates sumoylation of shelterin complex (telosome) components. Acts as a repressor of nuclear receptor-dependent transcription possibly by interfering with CREBBP-dependent coactivation. May function as a coinhibitor of other CREBBP/EP300-dependent transcription factors.
Subunit / interactions. Component of the SMC5-SMC6 complex which consists at least of SMC5, SMC6, NSMCE2, NSMCE1, NSMCE4A or EID3 and NSMCE3; EID3 seems to be a testis-specific subunit. NSMCE1, NSMCE4A or EID3 and NSMCE3 probably form a subcomplex that bridges the head domains of the SMC5:SMC6 heterodimer. Homodimer, and heterodimer with EID2. Interacts with the C-terminal region of CREBBP.
Subcellular location. Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Chromosome. Telomere.
Tissue specificity. Highly expressed in testis.
Similarity. Belongs to the NSE4 family.
