    • Crucial Role for Early Growth Response-1 in the Transcriptional Regulation of miR-20b in Breast Cancer 

      Li, Dongping; Ilnytskyy, Yaroslav; Kovalchuk, Anna; Khachigian, Levon M.; Bronson, Roderick T.; Wang, Bo; Kovalchuk, Olga (Impact Journals LLC, 2013)
      Transcriptional regulation of miRNAs that control the pathogenesis of breast cancer remains largely unknown. Here, we showed that ionizing radiation, a known breast carcinogen, triggered the differential expression of ...

    • Depletion of eIF2.GTP.Met-tRNAi translation initiation complex up-regulates BRCA1 expression in vitro and in vivo 

      Aktas, Bertal H.; Bordelois, Paula; Peker, Selen; Merajver, Sophia; Halperin, Jose A. (Impact Journals LLC, 2015)
      Most sporadic breast and ovarian cancers express low levels of the breast cancer susceptibility gene, BRCA1. The BRCA1 gene produces two transcripts, mRNAa and mRNAb. mRNAb, present in breast cancer but not in normal mammary ...

    • Inheritance of deleterious mutations at both BRCA1 and BRCA2 in an international sample of 32,295 women

(BioMed Central, 2016)
      Background: Most BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers have inherited a single (heterozygous) mutation. Transheterozygotes (TH) who have inherited deleterious mutations in both BRCA1 and BRCA2 are rare, and the consequences of ...

    • MicroRNAs down-regulate homologous recombination in the G1 phase of cycling cells to maintain genomic stability 

      Choi, Young Eun; Pan, Yunfeng; Park, Eunmi; Konstantinopoulos, Panagiotis; De, Subhajyoti; D'Andrea, Alan; Chowdhury, Dipanjan (eLife Sciences Publications, Ltd, 2014)
      Homologous recombination (HR)-mediated repair of DNA double-strand break (DSB)s is restricted to the post-replicative phases of the cell cycle. Initiation of HR in the G1 phase blocks non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) ...
