GAJ protein, Homolog of yeast MND1, Meiotic nuclear division 1, S. cerevisiae. homolog of antibody, Meiotic nuclear division protein 1 homolog, Meiotic nuclear divisions 1 homolog S. cerevisiae, Meiotic nuclear divisions 1 homolog, MGC134110, MND1, RGD13
The product of the GAJ gene associates with HOP2 to form a stable heterodimeric complex that binds DNA and stimulates the recombinase activity of RAD51 and DMC1. Both the MND1 and HOP2 genes are indispensable for meiotic recombination.
