General description
LIG4 is a DNA Ligase IV is required for proper V(D)J recombination and DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair through nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ). It forms a complex with XRCC4.
The previously assigned protein identifier Q8IY66 has beenmerged into P49917. Full details can be found on the UniProt database.

Biochem/physiol Actions
LIG4 encodes a DNA ligase that joins single-strand breaks in a double-stranded polydeoxynucleotide in an ATP-dependent reaction. This protein is essential for V(D)J recombination and DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair through nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ). This protein forms a complex with the X-ray repair cross complementing protein 4 (XRCC4), and further interacts with the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK). Both XRCC4 and DNA-PK are known to be required for NHEJ. The crystal structure of the complex formed by this protein and XRCC4 has been resolved. Defects in this gene are the cause of LIG4 syndrome.
