Coupled MD simulations and NMR reveal that the intrinsically disordered domain of the breast-cancer susceptibility 1 protein (BRCA1) binds head-on to DNA double-strand ends

Mutations of the breast cancer susceptibility 1 (BRCA1) gene are associated with high risks of breast and ovarian cancer, not least due to the vital role of the BRCA1 gene product in DNA double-strand repair. Strikingly, little is known about the structural dynamics of BRCA1-DNA complexes, despite t...
