IPR015187 is a BRCA2, OB1.
<p>BRCA2 participates in homologous recombination-mediated repair of double-strand DNA breaks [[cite:PUB00021040], [cite:PUB00086003]]. It stimulates the displacement of Replication protein A (RPA), the most abundant eukaryotic ssDNA binding protein [[cite:PUB00027524]]. Mutations that map throughout the BRCA2 protein are associated with breast cancer susceptibility [[cite:PUB00066909]]. BRCA2 is a large nuclear protein and its most conserved region is the C-terminal BRCA2DBD. BRCA2DBD binds ssDNA in vitro, and is composed of five structural domains, three of which are OB folds (OB1, OB2, and OB3). BRCA2DBD OB2 and OB3 are arranged in tandem, and their mode of binding can be considered qualitatively similar to two OB folds of RPA1, DBD-A and DBD-B (the major DBDs of RPA) [[cite:PUB00016304]].</p> <p>This entry represents OB1, which consists of a highly curved five-stranded β-sheet that closes on itself to form a β-barrel. OB1 has a shallow groove formed by one face of the curved sheet and is demarcated by two loops, one between beta 1 and beta 2 and another between beta 4 and beta 5, which allows for weak single strand DNA binding. The domain also binds the 70-amino acid DSS1 (deleted in split-hand/split foot syndrome) protein, which was originally identified as one of three genes that map to a 1.5-Mb locus deleted in an inherited developmental malformation syndrome [[cite:PUB00021040]].</p>

| Biological process | Double-strand break repair via homologous recombination | The error-free repair of a double-strand break in DNA in which the broken DNA molecule is repaired using homologous sequences. A strand in the broken DNA searches for a homologous region in an intact chromosome to serve as the template for DNA synthesis. The restoration of two intact DNA molecules results in the exchange, reciprocal or nonreciprocal, of genetic material between the intact DNA molecule and the broken DNA molecule. |
