NCIt definition : Human RAD50 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 5q31 and is approximately
89 kb in length. This allele, which encodes DNA repair protein RAD50, is involved
in DNA double-strand break repair, cell cycle checkpoint activation, telomere maintenance,
and meiotic recombination. Mutations in this gene are associated with Nijmegen breakage
syndrome-like disorder.;
