This domain is found at the N-terminal end of E3 SUMO-protein ligase MMS21 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and similar fungal proteins. MMS21 acts in a DNA repair pathway for removal of UV-induced DNA damage that is distinct from classical nucleotide excision repair and in repair of ionizing radiation damage. This domain forms an helix bundle with a coiled-coil structure. It is required for the binding to Smc5, which is essential for cell growth and resistance to DNA damage [1].
Nse1 and Nse2 are novel non-SMC subunits of the fission yeast Smc5-6 DNA repair complex. This family is the zinc-finger domain similar to the MIZ type of zinc-finger [1].
