Summary
BRCA1 (BRCA1 DNA repair associated, HGNC:1100) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17q21.31, encoding Breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein (P38398). E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that specifically mediates the formation of ‘Lys-6’-linked polyubiquitin chains and plays a central role in DNA repair by facilitating cellular responses to DNA damage. In precision oncology, BRCA1 Mutation confers sensitivity to Rucaparib in Ovarian Cancer (CIViC Level A); 42 further curated variant–drug associations are listed below. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 44.8% of cell lines) and haploinsufficient (ClinGen: sufficient evidence).
This gene encodes a 190 kD nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in maintaining genomic stability, and it also acts as a tumor suppressor. The BRCA1 gene contains 22 exons spanning about 110 kb of DNA. The encoded protein combines with other tumor suppressors, DNA damage sensors, and signal transducers to form a large multi-subunit protein complex known as the BRCA1-associated genome surveillance complex (BASC). This gene product associates with RNA polymerase II, and through the C-terminal domain, also interacts with histone deacetylase complexes. This protein thus plays a role in transcription, DNA repair of double-stranded breaks, and recombination. Mutations in this gene are responsible for approximately 40% of inherited breast cancers and more than 80% of inherited breast and ovarian cancers. Alternative splicing plays a role in modulating the subcellular localization and physiological function of this gene. Many alternatively spliced transcript variants, some of which are disease-associated mutations, have been described for this gene, but the full-length natures of only some of these variants has been described. A related pseudogene, which is also located on chromosome 17, has been identified.

Function. E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that specifically mediates the formation of ‘Lys-6’-linked polyubiquitin chains and plays a central role in DNA repair by facilitating cellular responses to DNA damage. It is unclear whether it also mediates the formation of other types of polyubiquitin chains. The BRCA1-BARD1 heterodimer coordinates a diverse range of cellular pathways such as DNA damage repair, ubiquitination and transcriptional regulation to maintain genomic stability. Regulates centrosomal microtubule nucleation. Required for appropriate cell cycle arrests after ionizing irradiation in both the S-phase and the G2 phase of the cell cycle. Required for FANCD2 targeting to sites of DNA damage. Inhibits lipid synthesis by binding to inactive phosphorylated ACACA and preventing its dephosphorylation. Contributes to homologous recombination repair (HRR) via its direct interaction with PALB2, fine-tunes recombinational repair partly through its modulatory role in the PALB2-dependent loading of BRCA2-RAD51 repair machinery at DNA breaks. Component of the BRCA1-RBBP8 complex which regulates CHEK1 activation and controls cell cycle G2/M checkpoints on DNA damage via BRCA1-mediated ubiquitination of RBBP8. Acts as a transcriptional activator.
Subunit / interactions. Heterodimer with BARD1. Part of the BRCA1-associated genome surveillance complex (BASC), which contains BRCA1, MSH2, MSH6, MLH1, ATM, BLM, PMS2 and the MRE11-RAD50-NBN protein (MRN) complex. This association could be a dynamic process changing throughout the cell cycle and within subnuclear domains. Component of the BRCA1-A complex, at least composed of BRCA1, BARD1, UIMC1/RAP80, ABRAXAS1, BRCC3/BRCC36, BABAM2 and BABAM1/NBA1. Interacts (via the BRCT domains) with ABRAXAS1 (phosphorylated form); this is important for recruitment to sites of DNA damage. Can form a heterotetramer with two molecules of ABRAXAS1 (phosphorylated form). Component of the BRCA1-RBBP8 complex. Interacts (via the BRCT domains) with RBBP8 (‘Ser-327’ phosphorylated form); the interaction ubiquitinates RBBP8, regulates CHEK1 activation, and involves RBBP8 in BRCA1-dependent G2/M checkpoint control on DNA damage. Associates with RNA polymerase II holoenzyme. Interacts with SMC1A, NELFB, DCLRE1C, CLSPN. Interacts with CHEK1, CHEK2, BAP1, BRCC3, UBXN1 and PCLAF. Interacts (via BRCT domains) with BRIP1 (phosphorylated form). Interacts with FANCD2 (ubiquitinated form). Interacts with H2AX (phosphorylated on ‘Ser-140’). Interacts (via the BRCT domains) with ACACA (phosphorylated form); the interaction prevents dephosphorylation of ACACA. Part of a BRCA complex containing BRCA1, BRCA2 and PALB2. Interacts directly with PALB2; the interaction is essential for its function in HRR. Interacts directly with BRCA2; the interaction occurs only in the presence of PALB2 which serves as the bridging protein. Interacts (via the BRCT domains) with LMO4; the interaction represses the transcriptional activity of BRCA1. Interacts (via the BRCT domains) with CCAR2 (via N-terminus); the interaction represses the transcriptional activator activity of BRCA1. Interacts with EXD2. Interacts (via C-terminus) with DHX9; this interaction is direct and links BRCA1 to the RNA polymerase II holoenzyme. Interacts with DNA helicase ZGRF1; the interaction is increased following DNA damage induction. Interacts with FBXO44; this interaction mediates BRCA1 ubiquitination and subsequent degradation.
Subcellular location. Nucleus. Chromosome. Cytoplasm Cytoplasm Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Isoform 1 and isoform 3 are widely expressed. Isoform 3 is reduced or absent in several breast and ovarian cancer cell lines.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated in response to IR, UV, and various stimuli that cause checkpoint activation, probably by ATM or ATR. Phosphorylation at Ser-988 by CHEK2 regulates mitotic spindle assembly. Phosphorylation by AURKA regulates centrosomal microtubule nucleation. Autoubiquitinated, undergoes ‘Lys-6’-linked polyubiquitination. ‘Lys-6’-linked polyubiquitination does not promote degradation. Ubiquitinated in a FBXO44-dependent manner; leading to proteasomal degradation.
Disease relevance. Breast cancer (BC) [MIM:114480] A common malignancy originating from breast epithelial tissue. Breast neoplasms can be distinguished by their histologic pattern. Invasive ductal carcinoma is by far the most common type. Breast cancer is etiologically and genetically heterogeneous. Important genetic factors have been indicated by familial occurrence and bilateral involvement. Mutations at more than one locus can be involved in different families or even in the same case. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Mutations in BRCA1 are thought to be responsible for 45% of inherited breast cancer. Moreover, BRCA1 carriers have a 4-fold increased risk of colon cancer, whereas male carriers face a 3-fold increased risk of prostate cancer. Cells lacking BRCA1 show defects in DNA repair by homologous recombination. Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, 1 (BROVCA1) [MIM:604370] A condition associated with familial predisposition to cancer of the breast and ovaries. Characteristic features in affected families are an early age of onset of breast cancer (often before age 50), increased chance of bilateral cancers (cancer that develop in both breasts, or both ovaries, independently), frequent occurrence of breast cancer among men, increased incidence of tumors of other specific organs, such as the prostate. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Mutations in BRCA1 are thought to be responsible for more than 80% of inherited breast-ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer (OC) [MIM:167000] The term ovarian cancer defines malignancies originating from ovarian tissue. Although many histologic types of ovarian tumors have been described, epithelial ovarian carcinoma is the most common form. Ovarian cancers are often asymptomatic and the recognized signs and symptoms, even of late-stage disease, are vague. Consequently, most patients are diagnosed with advanced disease. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Pancreatic cancer 4 (PNCA4) [MIM:614320] A malignant neoplasm of the pancreas. Tumors can arise from both the exocrine and endocrine portions of the pancreas, but 95% of them develop from the exocrine portion, including the ductal epithelium, acinar cells, connective tissue, and lymphatic tissue. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Fanconi anemia, complementation group S (FANCS) [MIM:617883] A form of Fanconi anemia, a disorder affecting all bone marrow elements and resulting in anemia, leukopenia and thrombopenia. It is associated with cardiac, renal and limb malformations, dermal pigmentary changes, and a predisposition to the development of malignancies. At the cellular level it is associated with hypersensitivity to DNA-damaging agents, chromosomal instability (increased chromosome breakage) and defective DNA repair. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. The E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity is inhibited by phosphorylation by AURKA. Activity is increased by phosphatase treatment.
Domain organisation. The BRCT domains recognize and bind phosphorylated pSXXF motif on proteins. The interaction with the phosphorylated pSXXF motif of ABRAXAS1, recruits BRCA1 at DNA damage sites. The RING-type zinc finger domain interacts with BAP1.
Pathway. Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.
Polymorphism. There is evidence that the presence of the rare form of Gln-356-Arg and Leu-871-Pro polymorphisms may be associated with an increased risk for developing ovarian cancer.
Miscellaneous. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Produced by alternative initiation at Met-18 of isoform 1. The N-terminus is confirmed by several cDNAs.

Disease & clinical
Cancer significance
From CIViC — curated cancer-variant interpretation:
BRCA1 mutations in the germline have become a hallmark for hereditary breast and ovarian cancers. Variants that have been demonstrated to reduce the function of the protein have been shown to increase the risk for these cancers, as well as prostate and pancreatic cancer. These findings have been the impetus for the increased popularity of genetic testing of healthy individuals to assess risk. Recent studies in ovarian cancer have also demonstrated that BRCA mutation status can predict treatment response. A number of trials assessing BRCA mutation status have shown an improved response to platinum agents, and more recently has led to the FDA-approval of PARP inhibitors for BRCA-positive ovarian cancers. These studies have resulted in the Society of Gynecologic Oncology to recommend germline BRCA testing in all patients with a diagnosis of ovarian cancer.
