BRIT1 forms damage-induced nuclear foci, is involved in DNA damage and cell cycle checkpoints as well as regulation of mitosis. BRIT1 function is necessary for DNA damage responses, and the absence of BRIT1 function leads to genome instability. A potential tumor suppressor, BRIT1 expression is reduced in human carcinomas (1-2, reviewed in 3). BRIT1 colocalizes with other DNA repair proteins (53BP1, MDC1, NBS1, ATM, RPA, and ATR) and is required for their activation (2). BRIT1 likely regulates DNA repair through chromatin remodeling in response to DNA damage, allowing access of repair proteins to DNA (4).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nBRCT-repeat inhibitor of TERT expression 1; BRIT1; FLJ12847; MCPH1; MCT; Microcephalin; microcephalin 1; truncated microcephalin\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 100\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799483699369,"sku":"4120T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-4120t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
