exo-1 encodes a 5'-3' exonuclease; by homology, EXO-1 is predicted to play a role in DNA metabolic processes, including recombination, double-strand break repair and DNA mismatch repair.
Predicted to enable 5'-3' DNA exonuclease activity and 5'-flap endonuclease activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA recombination and mismatch repair. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is an ortholog of human EXO1 (exonuclease 1).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
