Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable single-stranded DNA endodeoxyribonuclease activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA damage response and nucleic acid metabolic process. Located in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; Lynch syndrome; endometrial cancer; and gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple). Is an ortholog of human MRE11 (MRE11 homolog, double strand break repair nuclease).
