Background
SSBP1 is a housekeeping gene involved in mitochondrial biogenesis (Tiranti et al., 1995 [PubMed 7789991]). It is also a subunit of a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)-binding complex involved in the maintenance of genome stability (Huang et al., 2009) [PubMed 19683501].[supplied by OMIM, Feb 2010],
Function
function:This protein binds preferentially and cooperatively to ss-DNA. Probably involved in mitochondrial DNA replication.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Contains 1 SSB domain.,subunit:Homotetramer.,
