Gene

Official Full Name

Function (40)

BAP1

BRCA1 Associated Protein 1

Promotes DSB repair

BRCA1

Breast Cancer 1

Cell cycle checkpoints activation, resection of 5′ ends of the DSB, necessary for RAD51 function

BRCA2

Breast Cancer 2

Localizes RAD51 to the DSB

PARP1

Poly (ADP-Ribose) Polymerase 1

Initiates SSB repair

RAD51

RAD51 Recombinase

RAD 51 activity allows DNA to invade homologous double helix serving as template

RAD50

RAD50 double strand break repair protein

Forming of the MRN complex

ATM

ATM serine/threonine kinase

Detection of DSB

ATR

ATR serine/threonine kinase

Detection of DSB

PALB2

Partner and localizer of BRCA2

Localizes BRCA2 to the DSB

BARD1

BRCA1 associated RING domain 1

Binding partner of BAP1

EMSY

BRCA2 interacting transcriptional repressor

Transcription regulator that interacts with BRCA2

DDB2

Damage specific DNA binding protein 2

Required for DNA binding in DNA damage repair

BACH1

MRE11

MRE11 homolog, double strand break repair nuclease

Forming of the MRN complex

NBN

nibrin

Forming of the MRN complex
