RPA2

This gene encodes a subunit of the heterotrimeric Replication Protein A (RPA) complex, which binds to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), forming a nucleoprotein complex that plays an important role in DNA metabolism, being involved in DNA replication, repair, recombination, telomere maintenance, and co-ordinating the cellular response to DNA damage through activation of the ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein (ATR) kinase. The RPA complex protects single-stranded DNA from nucleases, prevents formation of secondary structures that would interfere with repair, and co-ordinates the recruitment and departure of different genome maintenance factors. The heterotrimeric complex has two different modes of ssDNA binding, a low-affinity and high-affinity mode, determined by which oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide-binding (OB) domains of the complex are utilized, and differing in the length of DNA bound. This subunit contains a single OB domain that participates in high-affinity DNA binding and also contains a winged helix domain at its carboxy terminus, which interacts with many genome maintenance protein. Post-translational modifications of the RPA complex also plays a role in co-ordinating different damage response pathways. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2017]

Interaction

Component of the replication protein A complex (RPA/RP-A), a heterotrimeric complex composed of RPA1, RPA2 and RPA3 (PubMed:2406247, PubMed:19116208, PubMed:10449415). Interacts with PRPF19; the PRP19-CDC5L complex is recruited to the sites of DNA repair where it ubiquitinates the replication protein A complex (RPA) (PubMed:24332808). Interacts with SERTAD3 (PubMed:10982866). Interacts with TIPIN (PubMed:17141802, PubMed:17296725). Interacts with TIMELESS (PubMed:17141802). Interacts with PPP4R2; the interaction is direct, DNA damage-dependent and mediates the recruitment of the PP4 catalytic subunit PPP4C (PubMed:20154705). Interacts (hyperphosphorylated) with RAD51 (PubMed:20154705). Interacts with SMARCAL1; the interaction is direct and mediates the recruitment to the RPA complex of SMARCAL1 (PubMed:19793861, PubMed:19793862, PubMed:19793863). Interacts with RAD52 and XPA; those interactions are direct and associate RAD52 and XPA to the RPA complex (PubMed:7700386, PubMed:8702565, PubMed:17765923, PubMed:11081631). Interacts with FBH1 (PubMed:23319600). Interacts with ETAA1; the interaction is direct and promotes ETAA1 recruitment at stalled replication forks (PubMed:27601467, PubMed:27723720, PubMed:27723717). Interacts with RFWD3 (PubMed:21504906, PubMed:21558276, PubMed:26474068, PubMed:28575657). Interacts with DDI2 (PubMed:29290612).
