RIF1 Is Essential for 53BP1-Dependent Nonhomologous End Joining and Suppression of DNA Double-Strand Break Resection
The appropriate execution of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair is critical for genome stability and tumor avoidance. 53BP1 and BRCA1 directly influence DSB repair pathway choice by regulating 5' end resection, but how this is achieved remains uncertain. Here we report that Rif1(-/-) mice are severely compromised for 53BP1-dependent class switch recombination (CSR) and fusion of dysfunctional...
متن کاملRif1: A Conserved Regulator of DNA Replication and Repair Hijacked by Telomeres in Yeasts
Rap1-interacting factor 1 (Rif1) was originally identified in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a telomere-binding protein that negatively regulates telomerase-mediated telomere elongation. Although this function is conserved in the distantly related fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, recent studies, both in yeasts and in metazoans, reveal that Rif1 also functions more globall...
متن کاملBRCA1 A-Complex fine tunes repair functions of BRCA1
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...
متن کاملExpression of human BRCA1 variants in mouse ES cells allows functional analysis of BRCA1 mutations.
To date, inheritance of a mutant BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene is the best-established indicator of an increased risk of developing breast cancer. Sequence analysis of these genes is being used to identify BRCA1/2 mutation carriers, though these efforts are hampered by the high frequency of variants of unknown clinical significance (VUSs). Functional evaluation of such variants has been restricted due to...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of the base excision repair pathway by BRCA1.
Inactivation of the breast cancer susceptibility gene BRCA1 plays a significant role in the development of a subset of breast cancers, although the major tumor suppressor function of this gene remains unclear. Previously, we showed that BRCA1 induces antioxidant-response gene expression and protects cells against oxidative stress. We now report that BRCA1 stimulates the base excision repair pat...
