While BRCA-related cancers respond well to double-strand break (DSB) inducing agents, resistance is a serious clinical problem. One mechanism of resistance is reversion of the BRCA1 mutation, suggesting that BRCA1 function is required for resistance. Here we show that secondary Brca1 mutations are n...

ARF is a tumour suppressor activated by oncogenic stress, which stabilizes p53. Although p53 is a key component of the response to DNA damage, a similar function for ARF has not been ascribed. In this work we show that homologous recombination (HR) -deficient primary mouse and human cells accumulate...

Palb2 interacts with BRCA1 and BRCA2 in supercomplexes involved in DNA repair via homologous recombination. Heterozygous germline mutations in PALB2 confer a moderate risk of breast cancer while biallelic PALB2 mutations are linked to a severe form of Fanconi anaemia characterized by early childhood...

Germline and somatic mutations in BRCA1predispose to breast cancer. We found that proteasome inhibitors can selectively kill BRCA1-depleted cells. The toxic response involves a deregulation of the G1/S cell cycle checkpoint via hyperphosphorylation of RB1, 53BP1-mediated arrest at G2/M checkpoint, ...
