Gene nameFEN1
Protein nameFlap endonuclease 1 (FEN-1) (EC 3.1.-.-) (DNase IV) (Flap structure-specific endonuclease 1) (Maturation factor 1) (MF1) (hFEN-1)
Flap structure-specific endonuclease 1
Flap endonuclease 1 (FEN-1) (EC 3.1.-.-) (Flap structure-specific endonuclease 1)
SynonymsRAD2
hCG_40848
DescriptionFUNCTION: Structure-specific nuclease with 5'-flap endonuclease and 5'-3' exonuclease activities involved in DNA replication and repair. During DNA replication, cleaves the 5'-overhanging flap structure that is generated by displacement synthesis when DNA polymerase encounters the 5'-end of a downstream Okazaki fragment. It enters the flap from the 5'-end and then tracks to cleave the flap base, leaving a nick for ligation. Also involved in the long patch base excision repair (LP-BER) pathway, by cleaving within the apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site-terminated flap. Acts as a genome stabilization factor that prevents flaps from equilibrating into structures that lead to duplications and deletions. Also possesses 5'-3' exonuclease activity on nicked or gapped double-stranded DNA, and exhibits RNase H activity. Also involved in replication and repair of rDNA and in repairing mitochondrial DNA. .
