Functional Restoration of BRCA2 Protein by Secondary BRCA2 Mutations in BRCA2 -Mutated Ovarian Carcinoma [PDF]
Abstract Acquired platinum resistance is a serious problem in the treatment of ovarian carcinomas. However, the mechanism of the drug resistance has not been elucidated. Here, we show functional significance of restoration of BRCA2 protein by secondary BRCA2 mutations in acquired drug resistance of BRCA2-mutated ovarian carcinoma ...

A new interaction between BRCA2 and DDX5 promotes the repair of DNA breaks at transcribed chromatin
In a recent report, we have revealed a new interaction between the BRCA2 DNA repair associated protein (BRCA2) and the DEAD-box helicase 5 (DDX5) at DNA breaks that promotes unwinding DNA-RNA hybrids within transcribed chromatin and favors repair ...

Clinical consequences of BRCA2 hypomorphism [PDF]
AbstractThe tumor suppressor FANCD1/BRCA2 is crucial for DNA homologous recombination repair (HRR). BRCA2 biallelic pathogenic variants result in a severe form of Fanconi anemia (FA) syndrome, whereas monoallelic pathogenic variants cause mainly hereditary breast and ovarian cancer predisposition.

BRCA2 Haploinsufficiency in Telomere Maintenance [PDF]
Our previous studies showed an association between monoallelic BRCA2 germline mutations and dysfunctional telomeres in epithelial mammary cell lines and increased risk of breast cancer diagnosis for women with BRCA2 999del5 germline mutation and short telomeres in blood cells.
