Abstract excerpt
The breast and ovarian cancer predisposition gene product BRCA1, binds to BARD1 at its N terminus. In cells BRCA1 is found as a heterodimer with BARD1 and may represent the functionally active form of BRCA1. Using yeast two-hybrid and split-hybrid screens we have identified 16 independent missense mutations which prevent the ability of the BARD1 N terminus to heterodimerize with BRCA1. With reference to the...
