Gene Description | RAD51C, RAD51 paralog C, functions in homologous recombination in DNA repair and plays a role in cell cycle checkpoint signaling in response to DNA damage (PMID: 21821141). Germline mutations in RAD51C are associated with increased susceptibility to breast and ovarian cancers (PMID: 21821141, PMID: 31446535) and overexpression of Rad51c has been observed in ovarian cancer (PMID: 32055267). | ||||||||||
