Abstract excerpt
BRCA1 is involved in maintaining genomic integrity and, as a regulator of the G2/M checkpoint, contributes to DNA repair and cell survival. The overexpression of BRCA1 elicits diverse cellular responses including apoptosis due to the stimulation of specific signaling pathways. BRCA1 is normally regulated by protein turnover, but is stabilized by BARD1 which can recruit BRCA1 to the nucleus to form a ubiquitin E3...
