Abstract
BACH1 (Brca1-Associated C-terminal Helicase) is an important DNA damage response factor, which is involved in DNA damage repair and maintenance of genomic stability. In this study, by using tandem protein affinity purification, we have identified BCLAF1 as a novel functional partner of BACH1. BCLAF1 constitutively interacts with BACH1 regardless of DNA damage. However, in response to DNA damage, along with BACH1, BCLAF1 is recruited to the DNA damage sites and the recruitment of BCLAF1 was regulated by BACH1 and BRCA1. Interestingly, BCLAF1 deficient cells are deficient for DSB-initiated HR, but RAD51 foci formation is intact following IR treatment. Taken together, these findings reveal that BCLAF1 is a functional binding partner of BACH1 playing a key role in DNA damage response.
期刊介绍:
DNA Repair provides a forum for the comprehensive coverage of DNA repair and cellular responses to DNA damage. The journal publishes original observations on genetic, cellular, biochemical, structural and molecular aspects of DNA repair, mutagenesis, cell cycle regulation, apoptosis and other biological responses in cells exposed to genomic insult, as well as their relationship to human disease.
DNA Repair publishes full-length research articles, brief reports on research, and reviews. The journal welcomes articles describing databases, methods and new technologies supporting research on DNA repair and responses to DNA damage. Letters to the Editor, hot topics and classics in DNA repair, historical reflections, book reviews and meeting reports also will be considered for publication.
