About Brca1

Summary

Enables chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of protein import into nucleus; response to estradiol; and response to nutrient. Located in mitochondrial matrix. Biomarker of ductal carcinoma in situ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including breast Cancer (multiple); cervix uteri carcinoma in situ; gastrointestinal system Cancer (multiple); hereditary breast ovarian Cancer syndrome; and reproductive organ Cancer (multiple). Orthologous to human BRCA1 (BRCA1 DNA repair associated). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
