Abstract excerpt
BRCA1, a breast and ovarian tumor suppressor, maintains genome stability through its functions in DNA repair, cell-cycle checkpoints, heterochromatin formation and centrosome amplification. BRCA1 interacts with BARD1 to constitute a RING heterodimer-type E3 ubiquitin ligase. BRCA1-associated protein 1 (BAP1) is a deubiquitinating enzyme that also regulates similar cellular events, including cell-cycle control,...
