Summary: Predicted to enable 5'-flap endonuclease activity and crossover junction DNA endonuclease activity. Predicted to be involved in double-strand break repair via homologous recombination. Part of Slx1-Slx4 complex. Orthologous to human SLX1A (SLX1 homolog A, structure-specific endonuclease subunit) and SLX1B (SLX1 homolog B, structure-specific endonuclease subunit).
