rad-54 encodes a protein that belongs to the DEAD-like helicase superfamily, and shares similarity with Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad54, and human RAD54L, proteins known to be involved in the homologous recombination (HR) and repair of DNA; in elegans, rad-54 acts in a HR pathway, downstream of a nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway, to promote ultraviolet induced apoptosis of damaged cells.
