About SMC6
Enables DNA secondary structure binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular senescence; negative regulation by host of viral genome replication; and telomere maintenance via recombination. Located in chromosome and nuclear body. Part of Smc5-Smc6 complex. Is active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
