Molecular evolution of a Drosophila homolog of human BRCA2.

Genetica - 1 Nov 2009

Bennett Sarah M, Noor Mohamed A F

Abstract excerpt

The human cancer susceptibility gene, BRCA2, functions in double-strand break repair by homologous recombination, and it appears to function via interaction of a repetitive region ("BRC repeats") with RAD-51. A putatively simpler homolog, dmbrca2, was identified in Drosophila melanogaster recentl...
