RPA1

This gene encodes the largest 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 nucleoprotein complex protects the 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. This subunit contains four oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide-binding (OB) domains, though the majority of ssDNA binding occurs in two of these domains. The heterotrimeric complex has two different modes of ssDNA binding, a low-affinity and high-affinity mode, determined by which ssDNA binding domains are utilized. The different binding modes differ in the length of DNA bound and in the proteins with which it interacts, thereby playing a role in regulating different genomic maintenance pathways.

Interaction

Component of the canonical replication protein A complex (RPA), a heterotrimer composed of RPA1, RPA2 and RPA3 (PubMed:27723720, PubMed:27723717). Also component of the aRPA, the alternative replication protein A complex, a trimeric complex similar to the replication protein A complex/RPA but where RPA1 and RPA3 are associated with RPA4 instead of RPA2 (PubMed:7760808, PubMed:19116208). The DNA-binding activity may reside exclusively on the RPA1 subunit. 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 RIPK1 (PubMed:16135809). Interacts with the polymerase alpha subunit POLA1/p180; this interaction stabilizes the replicative complex and reduces the misincorporation rate of DNA polymerase alpha by acting as a fidelity clamp (PubMed:9214288). Interacts with RAD51 and SENP6 to regulate DNA repair (PubMed:20705237). Interacts with HELB; this interaction promotes HELB recruitment to chromatin following DNA damage (PubMed:22194613, PubMed:26774285). Interacts with PRIMPOL; leading to recruit PRIMPOL on chromatin and stimulate its DNA primase activity (PubMed:24126761, PubMed:25550423, PubMed:28534480). Interacts with XPA; the interaction is direct and associates XPA with the RPA complex (PubMed:7700386, PubMed:9699634, PubMed:10563794). Interacts with ETAA1; the interaction is direct and promotes ETAA1 recruitment at stalled replication forks (PubMed:27601467, PubMed:27723720, PubMed:27723717). Interacts with RPA1; this interaction associates HROB with the RPA complex (By similarity).
