Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionhel-308 encodes a putative DNA helicase orthologous to human HELQ and Drosophila MUS301/SPN-C/CG7972-PA; Drosophila MUS301 is required for normal resistance to nitrogen mustard (HN2) and to the crosslinking agent cisplatin, and is probably also required for repair of meiotic double-stranded DNA breaks; human HELQ is a single-strandedDNA-dependent ATPase and DNA helicase, and archaeal Hel308 (Mth810) may act at stalled replication forks by displacing lagging strands; HEL-308, HELQ, and CG7972-PA are paralogous to the N-terminal DNA helicase domains of human DNA POLYMERASE THETA (POLQ, OMIM:604419), Drosophila MUS308, and a putative C. elegans POLQ ortholog, encoded by polq-1; HEL-308, HELQ, and CG7972-PA belong to the superfamily II of DNA and RNA helicases; HEL-308 is probably, like MUS301, required for recombinational repair of cross-linkage or double-stranded breaks in DNA; biochemically, HEL-308 may unwind regions of cross-linked DNA before their repair by other proteins (such as POLQ), or resolve Holliday junctions after homologous recombination (as is done by the archaeal homolog Hjm).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00027733

RemarkMap 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.CGC_data_submission
