BRCA2 is a breast cancer susceptibility gene implicated in the repair of double-strand breaks by homologous recombination with RAD51. BRCA2 associates with a 70-amino-acid protein, DSS1, but the functional significance of this interaction has remained unclear. Recently, deficiency of a DSS1 orthologue in the fungus Ustilago maydis has been shown to cause a defect in recombinational DNA repair. ...
BACKGROUND Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) may rarely be a component of inherited cancer syndromes such as Li-Fraumeni syndrome and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. ACC caused by a BRCA2 mutation has never been reported. METHODS Nucleotide sequencing of BRCA2 in lymphocyte and tumoral DNA of a 50-year-old male who presented with an androgen-secreting ACC and a strong family history of breast, ovar...
BRCA1 and BRCA2 breast cancer susceptibility genes are responsible for most of the hereditary breast cancers. No or very few sporadic breast tumors have been shown to harbor mutations in the coding sequence of BRCA1 or BRCA2. In contrast to normal breast epithelial cells, BRCA1 mRNA levels in tumors appeared to be down-regulated by methylation, while BRCA2 showed significant overexpression in s...
The controlled release of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) from promoter-proximal pausing (PPP) sites is critical for transcription elongation in metazoans. We show that the human tumor suppressor BRCA2 interacts with RNAPII to regulate PPP release, thereby preventing unscheduled RNA-DNA hybrids (R-loops) implicated in genomic instability and carcinogenesis. BRCA2 inactivation by depletion or cancer-...

Recently, the breast cancer susceptibility gene BRCA2 has been identified in chromosome 13q, a region that also contains the retinoblastoma gene RB1. To elucidate a possible role of BRCA2 and RB1 in sporadic breast tumorigenesis, allelic imbalance (AI) at 13q loci was examined in 78 primary sporadic breast tumors. AI was found in 52-63% of tumors. Nine tumors showed AI only in the BRCA2 region ...
RAD51 recombinase polymerizes at the site of double-strand breaks (DSBs) where it performs DSB repair. The loss of RAD51 causes extensive chromosomal breaks, leading to apoptosis. The polymerization of RAD51 is regulated by a number of RAD51 mediators, such as BRCA1, BRCA2, RAD52, SFR1, SWS1, and the five RAD51 paralogs, including XRCC3. We here show that brca2-null mutant cells were able to pr...
مقدمه:سرطان پستان، شایع‌ترین بدخیمی در زنان و به‌‌عنوان اولین علت مرگ‌و‌میر ناشی از سرطان در زنان شناخته می‌شود.این بیماری به شدت ناهمگن بوده و تحت تأثیر عوامل ژنتیکی و محیطی به‌وجود می‌آید. جهش در دو ژن بسیار پرنفوذ BRCA1 و BRCA2 که نقش مهمی در ترمیم DNA دارند، علت اصلی 30-20% سرطان‌های پستان ارثی شناخته شده است. مطالعه حاضر با هدف بررسی فراوانی جهش‌های ژن BRCA1 در افراد مبتلا به سرطان پستان د...
The AURKA oncogene is associated with abnormal chromosome segregation and aneuploidy and predisposition to cancer. Amplification of AURKA has been detected at higher frequency in tumors from BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers than in sporadic breast tumors, suggesting that overexpression of AURKA and inactivation of BRCA1 and BRCA2 cooperate during tumor development and progression. The F31I pol...
A high intake of isoflavones is associated with a reduction of breast cancer among Japanese women. The aim of this study was to quantify BRCA2 tumor suppressor gene expression after treatment of cells with the phytoestrogens daidzein and genistein, the main compounds of soy. The effects of 5 microg/ml genistein and 20 microg/ml daidzein on BRCA2 expression were studied in two human mammary tumo...
