DNA repair protein RAD51 homolog 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RAD51L1 gene.The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RAD51 protein family. RAD51 family members are evolutionarily conserved proteins essential for DNA repair by homologous recombination. This protein has been shown to form a stable heterodimer with the family member RAD51C which further interacts with the other family members such as RAD51 XRCC2 and XRCC3.
