Protein
Proteins are biochemical compounds consisting of one or more polypeptides typically folded into a globular or fibrous form, facilitating a biological function. A polypeptide is a single linear polymer chain of amino acids bonded together by peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino groups of...

Gene
A gene is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is a name given to some stretches of DNA and RNA that code for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. Living beings depend on genes, as they specify all proteins and functional RNA chains...

Interactions
XRCC2 has been shown to interactProtein-protein interaction
Protein–protein interactions occur when two or more proteins bind together, often to carry out their biological function. Many of the most important molecular processes in the cell such as DNA replication are carried out by large molecular machines that are built from a large number of protein...
with RAD51L3
RAD51L3
DNA repair protein RAD51 homolog 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RAD51L3 gene.-Interactions:RAD51L3 has been shown to interact with XRCC2, Bloom syndrome protein and RAD51C.-Further reading:...
, Bloom syndrome protein
Bloom syndrome protein
Bloom syndrome protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BLM gene and is expressed in Bloom syndrome.The Bloom syndrome gene product is related to the RecQ subset of DExH box-containing DNA helicases and has both DNA-stimulated ATPase and ATP-dependent DNA helicase activities...
and RAD51C
RAD51C
RAD51 homolog C , also known as RAD51C, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the RAD51C gene.-Function:This gene is a member of the RAD51 family of related genes, which encode strand-transfer proteins thought to be involved in recombinational repair of damaged DNA and in meiotic recombination...
