objective(s): breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. every year, one million new cases are reported worldwide, representing 18% of the total number of cancer in women. hereditary brca1 and brca2 mutations account for about 60% of inherited breast cancer and are the only known causes of hereditary breast cancer syndrome. the aim of this study was to determine the frequency of brca2 (e...
Germline mutations in BRCA2 predispose to hereditary breast cancers. BRCA2 protein regulates recombinational repair by interaction with RAD51 via a series of degenerate BRC repeat motifs encoded by exon 11 (BRCA2(996-2113)), and an unrelated C-terminal domain (BRCA2(3265-3330)). BRCA2 is also required for meiotic recombination. Here, we show that human BRCA2 binds the meiosis-specific recombina...
The tumor suppressor BRCA2 is a large multifunctional protein mutated in 50-60% of familial breast cancers. BRCA2 interacts with many partners and includes multiple regions with potentially disordered structure. In homology directed DNA repair BRCA2 delivers RAD51 to DNA resulting in removal of RPA and assembly of a RAD51 nucleoprotein filament. Dynamic rearrangements of BRCA2 likely drive this...
Mutations truncating a single copy of the tumor suppressor, BRCA2, cause cancer susceptibility. In cells bearing such heterozygous mutations, we find that a cellular metabolite and ubiquitous environmental toxin, formaldehyde, stalls and destabilizes DNA replication forks, engendering structural chromosomal aberrations. Formaldehyde selectively depletes BRCA2 via proteasomal degradation, a mech...
Fanconi anaemia (FA) is an inherited condition characterised by congenital and developmental abnormalities and a strong cancer predisposition. In around 3-5% of cases FA is caused by biallelic mutations in the BRCA2 gene. Individuals heterozygous for BRCA2 mutations have an increased risk of inherited breast and ovarian cancer. We reviewed the mutation spectrum in BRCA2-associated FA, and the s...
BRCA2 has been implicated in the maintenance of genome stability and RAD51-mediated homologous recombination repair of chromosomal double-strand breaks (DSBs), but its role in these processes is unclear. To gain more insight into its role in homologous recombination, we expressed wild-type BRCA2 in the well-characterized BRCA2-deficient human cell line CAPAN-1 containing, as homologous recombin...
background : ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death among gynecological cancers. changes in the methylation of brca1 and brca2 may be an effective mechanism for breast and ovarian cancer. this study evaluates the protein expression and methylation status of brca2 in iranian patients. methods : we assessed 60 mullerian-type ovarian cancers by methylation-specific pcr assays and immunohisto...
BRCA2 is responsible for familial breast and ovarian cancer and has been linked to DNA repair and centrosome duplication. Here we analyzed the mechanism by which the centrosomal localization signal (CLS) of BRCA2 interacts with cytoplasmic dynein 1 to localize BRCA2 to the centrosome. In vitro pull-down assays demonstrated that BRCA2 directly binds to the cytoplasmic dynein 1 light intermediate...
BRCA2 encodes a protein with a fundamental role in homologous recombination that is essential for normal development. Carrier status of mutations in BRCA2 is associated with familial breast and ovarian cancer, while bi-allelic BRCA2 mutations can cause Fanconi anemia (FA), a cancer predisposition syndrome with cellular cross-linker hypersensitivity. Cancers associated with BRCA2 mutations can a...
BACKGROUND Mammary tumors are the most common tumor type in intact female dogs. Recently, the breast cancer 2 early onset (BRCA2) gene was proposed to be associated with tumorigenesis in dogs. The expression level of BRCA2 is important for its DNA repair function in mammalian cells, and its expression level is linked to tumorigenesis in mammary tissue. However, the expression of canine BRCA2 in...
