背景介绍
The protein encoded by this gene is a ubiquitously
expressed nuclear protein. It is found among several proteins that
bind directly to retinoblastoma protein, which regulates cell
proliferation. This protein complexes with transcriptional
co-repressor CTBP. It is also associated with BRCA1 and is thought
to modulate the functions of BRCA1 in transcriptional regulation,
DNA repair, and/or cell cycle checkpoint control. It is suggested
that this gene may itself be a tumor suppressor acting in the same
pathway as BRCA1. Three transcript variants encoding two different
isoforms have been found for this gene. More transcript variants
exist, but their full-length natures have not been determined.
组织表达
Expressed in ER-positive breast cancer lines, but tends to be down-regulated ER-negative cells (at protein level)
细胞定位
Nucleus. Chromosome. Note=Associates with sites of DNA damage in S/G2 phase (PubMed:10764811, PubMed:25349192). Ubiquitinated RBBP8 binds to chromatin following DNA damage (PubMed:16818604)
功能
Endonuclease that cooperates with the MRE11-RAD50-NBN (MRN) complex in DNA-end resection, the first step of double-strand break (DSB) repair through the homologous recombination (HR) pathway (PubMed:
17965729, PubMed:
19202191, PubMed:
19759395, PubMed:
20064462). HR is restricted to S and G2 phases of the cell cycle and preferentially repairs DSBs resulting from replication fork collapse (PubMed:
17965729, PubMed:
19202191). Key determinant of DSB repair pathway choice, as it commits cells to HR by preventing classical non- homologous end-joining (NHEJ) (PubMed:
19202191). Functions downstream of the MRN complex and ATM, promotes ATR activation and its recruitment to DSBs in the S/G2 phase facilitating the generation of ssDNA (PubMed:
16581787, PubMed:
17965729, PubMed:
19759395, PubMed:
20064462). Component of the BRCA1-RBBP8 complex that regulates CHEK1 activation and controls cell cycle G2/M checkpoints on DNA damage (PubMed:
15485915, PubMed:
16818604). During immunoglobulin heavy chain class-switch recombination, promotes microhomology-mediated alternative end joining (A-NHEJ) and plays an essential role in chromosomal translocations (By similarity).
