RNF168-mediated localization of BARD1 recruits the BRCA1-PALB2 complex to DNA damage
Abstract
The BRCA1-PALB2-BRCA2-RAD51 (BRCA1-P) complex is well known to play a fundamental role in DNA repair, but how the complex recruitment is regulated is still a matter of interest. Here the authors reveal mechanistic insights into RNF168 activity being responsible for PALB2 recruitment, through BARD1-BRCA1 during homologous recombination repair.
