RAD51 is an eukaryote gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RAD51 protein family which assist in repair of DNA double strand breaks. RAD51 family members are homologous to the bacterial RecA and yeast Rad51. The protein is highly conserved in most eukaryotes, from yeast to humans.
