Recombinant Human Fanconi anemia group J protein (BRIP1), Truncated

Uniprot Id

Q9BX63

Target Species

Human

Target Name

BRIP1

Target Full Name

Fanconi anemia group J protein

Target Function

DNA-dependent ATPase and 5' to 3' DNA helicase required for the maintenance of chromosomal stability. Acts late in the Fanconi anemia pathway, after FANCD2 ubiquitination. Involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination in a manner that depends on its association with BRCA1.

Target Involvement

Breast cancer (BC); Fanconi anemia complementation group J (FANCJ)

Target Subcellular Location

Nucleus. Cytoplasm.

Target Protein Families

DEAD box helicase family, DEAH subfamily

Target Tissue Specificity

Ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in testis.

Target Synonyms

ATP dependent RNA helicase BRIP1; ATP-dependent RNA helicase BRIP1; BACH 1; BRAC 1 Associated C Terminal Helicase 1; BRCA 1 Interacting Protein 1; BRCA1 binding helicase like protein BACH1; BRCA1 interacting protein C terminal helicase 1; BRCA1-associated C-terminal helicase 1; BRCA1-interacting protein 1; BRCA1-interacting protein C-terminal helicase 1; BRCA1/BRCA2 associated helicase 1; BRIP 1; BRIP1; FANCJ; FANCJ_HUMAN; Fanconi anemia group J protein; FLJ90232; MGC126521; MGC126523; OF; Protein FACJ

Target Background

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RecQ DEAH helicase family and interacts with the BRCT repeats of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). The bound complex is important in the normal double-strand break repair function of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). This gene may be a target of germline cancer-inducing mutations.
