A role for the p53 tumour suppressor in regulating the balance between homologous recombination and non-homologous end joining [PDF]
Loss of p53, a transcription factor activated by cellular stress, is a frequent event in cancer. The role of p53 in tumour suppression is largely attributed to cell fate decisions.

Brca1 mutations in the coiled-coil domain impede Rad51 loading on DNA and mouse development
We recently developed a Brca1 coiled-coil mutant mouse model (Brca1CC). Brca1CC/CC results in embryonic lethality, with a fraction of mice reaching birth but with defects that parallel Fanconi anemia.

RPA, RFWD3 and BRCA2 at stalled forks: a balancing act
We recently identified E3 ligase RFWD3 as a modulator of stalled fork stability in BRCA2-deficient cells. We also show that BRCA1 might function upstream of BRCA2 during fork repair and that blocking fork degradation by depleting MRE11 does not guarantee

Limited Independent Follow-Up with Germline Testing of Variants Detected in BRCA1 and BRCA2 by Tumor-Only Sequencing [PDF]
Introduction Genomic profiling is performed in patients with advanced or metastatic cancer, in order to direct cancer treatment, often sequencing tumor-only, without a matched germline comparator.
