BRCA1 (breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility protein 1) is a nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in maintaining genomic stability and acts as a tumor suppressor.
It combines with other tumor suppressors, DNA damage sensors, and signal transducers to form a large multi-subunit protein complex known as BASC (for BRCA1 associated genome surveillance complex).
BRCA1 associates with RNA polymerase II, and through the C terminal domain, also interacts with histone deacetylase complex.
This protein thus plays a role in transcription, DNA repair of double-stranded breaks, and recombination.
Mutations in the BRCA1 gene are responsible for ~40% of inherited breast cancers and more than 80% of inherited breast and ovarian cancers.
Alternative splicing plays a role in modulating the subcellular localization and physiological function of this gene.
