Entry term(s) producto del gen del cancer de mama 2
proteína del grupo de complementación D1 de la anemia de Fanconi
Scope note: Proteína nuclear, de gran tamaño, codificada por el gen BRCA2 (GEN, BRCA2). Las mutaciones en este gen predisponen, en los seres humanos, al cáncer de mama y ovarios. La proteína BRCA2 es un componente esencial de los sistemas de reparación de ADN, anulando la formación de grandes redistribuciones cromosómicas. (Genes Dev. 2000;14(11):1400-6)

Scope note: A large, nuclear protein, encoded by the BRCA2 gene (GENE, BRCA2). Mutations in this gene predispose humans to breast and ovarian cancer. The BRCA2 protein is an essential component of DNA repair pathways, suppressing the formation of gross chromosomal rearrangements. (from Genes Dev. 2000;14(11):1400-6)
