In G2 phase cells, DNA double-strand break repair switches from DNA non-homologous end-joining to homologous recombination. This switch demands the promotion of resection. We examine the changes in 53BP1 and RAP80 ionizing radiation induced foci (IRIF) in G2 phase, as these are factors that restrict resection. We observed a 2-fold increase in the volume of 53BP1 foci by 8 h, which is not seen i...
Rap80 targets the breast cancer suppressor protein BRCA1 along with Abraxas and the BRCC36 deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) to polyubiquitin structures at DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). These DSB targeting events are essential for BRCA1-dependent DNA damage response-induced checkpoint and repair functions. Here, we identify MERIT40 (Mediator of Rap80 Interactions and Targeting 40 kD)/(C19orf62) ...
Mutations affecting the BRCT domains of the breast cancer-associated tumor suppressor BRCA1 disrupt the recruitment of this protein to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). The molecular structures at DSBs recognized by BRCA1 are presently unknown. We report the interaction of the BRCA1 BRCT domain with RAP80, a ubiquitin-binding protein. RAP80 targets a complex containing the BRCA1-BARD1 (BRCA1-ass...
Inherited BRCA1 mutations confer elevated cancer risk. Recent studies have identified genes that encode proteins that interact with BRCA1 as modifiers of BRCA1-associated breast cancer. We evaluated a comprehensive set of genes that encode most known BRCA1 interactors to evaluate the role of these genes as modifiers of cancer risk. A cohort of 2,825 BRCA1 mutation carriers was used to evaluate ...
The integrity of male germ cell genome is critical for the correct progression of spermatogenesis, successful fertilization, and proper development of the offspring. Several DNA repair pathways exist in male germ cells. However, unlike somatic cells, key components of such pathways remain largely unidentified. Gametogenetin (GGN) is a testis-enriched protein that has been shown to bind to the D...
The messenger RNA (mRNA) from 5 of 69 patients with severe hemophilia A did not support amplification of complementary DNA containing the first few exons of the factor VIII (F8) gene but supported amplification of mRNA containing exon 1 of F8 plus exons of the VBP1 gene. This chimeric mRNA signals an inversion breaking intron 1 of the F8 gene. Using an inversion patient, one deleted for F8 exon...
mutations in BRCA1 increase the risk of breast and ovarian cancer, but the specific pathways driving breast and ovarian cancer development in BRCA1 mutants are currently unclear [1]. Several studies have demonstrated that BRCA1 is required for cellular responses to DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) and homologous recombination (HR), although its exact role in these processes is unclear. BRCA1 con...
Neuronal communication requires the coordinated assembly of polarized structures including axons, dendrites, and synapses. Here, we report the identification of a ubiquitin ligase mind bomb 1 (Mib1) in the postsynaptic density and the characterization of its role in neuronal morphogenesis. Expression of Mib1 inhibits neurite outgrowth in cell culture and its gene deletion enhances synaptic grow...

To the editor : Intron 1 factor VIII gene inversion in a population of Italian hemophilia A patients
Bagnall and collegues1 report a technique to investigate an inversion that disrupts the factor VIII (F8) gene and that represents a frequent cause of severe hemophilia A. This large genomic rearrangement, identified for the first time by Brinke et al2 in 2 haemophilic monozygotic twins, affects intron 1 of the F8 gene. Bagnall et al1 demonstrated that this inversion of intron 1 derives from a h...
