Enhanced mutant BRCA1 protein inside a platinum-resistant ovarian carcinoma. BRCA1 and 53BP1 protein levels measured by immunohistochemistry from patient 149101. Representative stains of biopsies taken in the platinum-sensitive main ovarian tumor and the recurrent resistant tumor.and facilitated BRCA1-independent DNA end resection (ten, 11). Consistent with other research, 53BP1 depletion alone contributed to PARP inhibitor resistance (10, 11), but conferred only a slight degree of resistance within this BRCA1 mutant human cancer cell line model (20). Despite the fact that 53BP1 depletion hyperactivated DNA finish resection and RPA32 loading, with no stabilization and increased expression with the mutant BRCA1 protein, RAD51 assembly couldn’t occur following DNA damage. The present study shows inherent partial function of a BRCT domain-mutated BRCA1 protein which will contribute to HR. Other studies have demonstrated functionality of N-terminal missense mutations, and knock-in Brca1-deficient mouse models expressing these mutants responded poorly to platinum drugs, mitomycin C, or PARP inhibition (23, 24). Additionally, despite the fact that a reduction in 53BP1 expression may well facilitate DNA end resection1.
