Functional Evolution of BRCT Domains from Binding DNA to Protein

The BRCT domain (BRCA1 C-terminal domain) is an important signaling and protein targeting motif in the DNA damage response system. The BRCT domain, which mainly occurs as a singleton (single BRCT) or tandem pair (double BRCT), contains a phosphate-binding pocket that can bind the phosphate from eith...
