Crystal Structure of the BARD1 Ankyrin Repeat Domain and Its
Functional Consequences

Abstract

BARD1 is the constitutive nuclear partner to the breast and ovarian cancer specific tumor suppressor BRCA1. Together, they form a heterodimeric complex responsible for maintaining genomic stability through nuclear functions involving DNA damage signaling and repair, transcriptional regulation, and cell cycle control.
