Brat1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

A similar gene in human encodes a Breast Cancer 1 (BRCA1) interacting protein that is involved in cell cycle checkpoint signaling. The similar human protein is localized to DNA double strand breaks caused by ionizing radiation, and regulates cellular DNA damage response through interactions with Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) and DNA-dependent Protein Kinase. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Brat1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
