Abstract: In humans, mutations of the breast cancer susceptibility protein BRCA2 interact with recombinase RAD51 and increase the risk of cancer. This interaction occurs via a series of eight BRC repeat sequences in BRCA2. A mammalian two-hybrid assay using individual BRC repeats demonstrated that all the repeats except BRC6 bind RAD51 strongly (BRC1, 2 and 4), with intermediate strength (BRC8), or weakly (BRC3, 5 and 7). In serial deletion mutation experiments, the binding strengths were increased when the C-terminal BRC repeat was removed from BRC1-8, BRC1-5 and BRC1-3. These results provide an understanding of the basic function of canine BRCA2 and may be helpful to estimate the effect of missense or truncation mutations in canine mammary tumours.
