    Summary
    The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RAD51 protein family. RAD51 family members are highly similar to bacterial RecA and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad51, and are known to be involved in the homologous recombination and repair of DNA. This protein can interact with the ssDNA-binding protein RPA and RAD52, and it is thought to play roles in homologous pairing and strand transfer of DNA. This protein is also found to interact with BRCA1 and BRCA2, which may be important for the cellular response to DNA damage. BRCA2 is shown to regulate both the intracellular localization and DNA-binding ability of this protein. Loss of these controls following BRCA2 inactivation may be a key event leading to genomic instability and tumorigenesis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

    Familial cancer of breast

    Summary from GeneReviews: BRCA1 and BRCA2 Hereditary Breast/Ovarian Cancer Go to GeneReviews

    Disease Characteristics
    A germline mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 predisposes to breast and ovarian cancer as well as other cancers. The risk of developing cancer that is associated with a germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation, which has been derived from families with multiple affected individuals, families with few affected individuals, and from population-based studies, appears to be variable within families. Prognosis for breast and ovarian cancer depends on the stage at which the cancer is diagnosed; however, studies on survival have revealed conflicting results for individuals with germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations when compared to controls.
    Diagnosis Testing
    Molecular genetic testing for germline BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations is available on a clinical basis for individuals who are identified to be at high risk based on their personal and/or family history and for at-risk relatives of an individual with an identified germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. No currently available technique can guarantee the identification of all cancer-predisposing mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2. Furthermore, mutations of uncertain clinical significance may be identified.
    Genetic Counseling
    Germline mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Each offspring of an individual with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 germline mutation has a 50% chance of inheriting the mutation. Molecular genetic testing of asymptomatic family members at risk of inheriting either a BRCA1 or BRCA2 germline mutation is feasible once the family-specific mutation has been identified. Prenatal testing is possible for pregnancies at increased risk if the cancer-predisposing mutation in the family is known; however, requests for prenatal diagnosis of adult-onset diseases are uncommon and require careful genetic counseling.

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

      • PubMed
        Links between Gene and PubMed are the result of the following: 1. Manual curation within NCBI. Part of the process of generating a REVIEWED RefSeq is an analysis of the current literature. Papers that are seminal in defining the gene, its sequence, and its function are added to the record at that time. Alert users point out gaps or errors in papers associated with a Gene record. These messages are reviewed and implemented as required. 2. Integration of information from other public databases. Gene integrates gene-citation from resources external to NCBI such as model organism-specific databases, Gene Ontology (GO), groups curating interactions, and sequence databases. The assumption in using these source is that they report citations specific to a gene in a known species. Gene does not process citations from OMIM automatically, because many of citations in OMIM refer to studies of genes in species other than human.
      • PubMed (GeneRIF)
        GeneRIF -- Gene Reference Into Function Staff of the Index Section in the National Library of Medicine review the current literature. When they find articles focused on the structure and function of a gene, they write a brief summary of the impact of the paper and make the connection between the citation (PubMed) and Gene. An interface exists for interested users to submit such data as well. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/GeneRIF/GeneRIFhelp.html

        Links are provided when Gene has a link to a record in OMIM, and OMIM explicitly cites these publications in PubMed.
