Disease[CTIP_HUMAN] Seckel syndrome;Jawad syndrome. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Genetic variability in RBBP8 is noted as a factor in BRCA1-associated breast cancer risk (PubMed:21799032). Associated with sensitivity to tamoxifen in certain breast cancer cell lines (PubMed:18171986).[1] [2] Function[CTIP_HUMAN] Endonuclease that cooperates with the MRE11-RAD50-NBN (MRN) complex in DNA-end resection, the first step of double-strand break (DSB) repair through the homologous recombination (HR) pathway. HR is restricted to S and G2 phases of the cell cycle and preferentially repairs DSBs resulting from replication fork collapse. Key determinant of DSB repair pathway choice, as it commits cells to HR by preventing classical non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ). Functions downstream of the MRN complex and ATM, promotes ATR activation and its recruitment to DSBs in the S/G2 phase facilitating the generation of ssDNA. Component of the BRCA1-RBBP8 complex that regulates CHEK1 activation and controls cell cycle G2/M checkpoints on DNA damage (PubMed:10764811, PubMed:10910365, PubMed:15485915, PubMed:16581787, PubMed:16818604, PubMed:17965729, PubMed:19202191, PubMed:19759395, PubMed:20064462, PubMed:20829486). During immunoglobulin heavy chain class-switch recombination, promotes microhomology-mediated alternative end joining (A-NHEJ) and plays an essential role in chromosomal translocations (By similarity).[UniProtKB:Q80YR6][3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] Publication Abstract from PubMedLIM-only protein 4 (LMO4) is strongly linked to the progression of breast cancer. Although the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon are not well understood, a role is emerging for LMO4 in regulation of the cell cycle. We determined the solution structure of LMO4 in complex with CtIP (C-terminal binding protein interacting protein)/RBBP8, a tumour suppressor protein that is involved in cell cycle progression, DNA repair and transcriptional regulation. Our data reveal that CtIP and the essential LMO cofactor LDB1 (LIM-domain binding protein 1) bind to the same face on LMO4 and cannot simultaneously bind to LMO4. We hypothesise that overexpression of LMO4 may disrupt some of the normal tumour suppressor activities of CtIP, thereby contributing to breast cancer progression.
