项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Inherited mutations in the Breast Cancer 1 and 2 genes (BRCA1 and BRCA2) confer susceptibility to breast and ovarian cancer, as well as to pancreatic and prostate cancers. The BRCA proteins are required for DNA repair by homologous recombination and this function is intimately connected to tumor suppression. BRCA mutation status is also an important predictor of response to chemotherapy. Inhibition of specific DNA repair pathways has emerged as an elegant and effective strategy to induce synthetic lethality in BRCA mutant cancers. Understanding the molecular basis of BRCA dependent DNA repair is therefore a central issue to cancer etiology and therapy. We have discovered that BRCA1 is targeted to lysine63-linked ubiquitin regions aligning DNA double-strand break chromatin by the RAP80-BRCC36 complex. Deficiency of this complex results in reduced BRCA1 DNA damage localization and genomic instability. Moreover, mutations within several genes that encode constituents of this complex are associated with familial breast cancer. This indicates that ubiquitin recognition at double-strand break chromatin is a bona fide component of BRCA dependent tumor suppression. This proposal will take in vivo, cellular, and structure guided biochemical approaches to understand how DNA double-strand break ubiquitin recognition by the RAP80-BRCC36 complex relates to BRCA dependent homologous recombination repair mechanisms and response to therapy. The studies are intended to elucidate basic DNA repair mechanisms and gain insights into cancer etiology and therapy.

描述（由申请人提供）：乳腺癌 1 和 2 基因（BRCA1 和 BRCA2）的遗传性突变导致对乳腺癌和卵巢癌以及胰腺癌和前列腺癌的易感性，BRCA 蛋白是通过同源重组进行 DNA 修复所必需的。这种功能与肿瘤抑制密切相关，也是化疗反应的重要预测因子。因此，了解 BRCA 依赖性 DNA 修复的分子基础是癌症病因学和治疗的核心问题，我们发现 BRCA1 靶向对齐 DNA 双链的赖氨酸 63 连接的泛素区域。 RAP80-BRCC36 复合物的缺失会导致 BRCA1 DNA 损伤定位减少和基因组不稳定，而且编码该复合物的多个基因内会发生突变。复合物与家族性乳腺癌相关，这表明双链断裂染色质的泛素识别是 BRCA 依赖性肿瘤抑制的真正组成部分。该提案将采用体内、细胞和结构引导的生化方法来了解 DNA 双链断裂的机制。 RAP80-BRCC36 复合物对链断裂泛素的识别与 BRCA 依赖性同源重组修复机制和治疗反应有关。这些研究旨在阐明基本 DNA 修复机制并深入了解癌症。病因和治疗。
