  2. Major Genetic Defects in Breast Cancer

  3. Major Genetic Defects in Breast Cancer

  4. Sex Hormone Regulation of Growth Factor Systems in Breast Cancer

  5. Genetic Alteration of Mammary Epithelial Cells - Progression of Breast Cancer Carcinoma in Situ Mutations in Growth Factor and Sex Steroid pathways governing the cell cycle C-ERBB2 C-MYC CCDN1 CDKN2 RB-1 Mutations in Cell Death Pathways TP53 Overall Chromosomal Instability Metastatic Cancer Further phenotypic alterations in cell cycle Further phenotypic alterations in cell death and response to therapy Phenotypic changes in growth factor secretion governing angiogenesis and metastatic spread Mutations in pathways governing invasion CDH1 Defects in mismatch repair of DNA Hyperplasia Overstimulation of cell cycle and suppression of apoptosis by Estrogen Progesterone Growth Factors Immortalization of cells by expression of Telomerase Predisposing genetic risk Mutations affecting DNA repair and apoptosis in BRCA-1 BRCA-2 TP53 PTEN

  6. BRCA1 Protein Function • Regulation of cell cycle progression • DNA repair: “caretaker” function • Programmed cell death (apoptosis) • Regulation of gene transcription

  7. BRCA1 Protein: Structural Features -1863 aa -220 kDa nuclear phosphoprotein -N-terminal RING domain (aa 20-64) interacts with BARD1 ubiquitin ligase activity -C-terminal TAD (last 95-100 aa) mediates transactivation BRCT repeats

  8. Role in DNA Damage Response Specialized DNA repair processes -Homology-directed repair -Transcription coupled repair -Mismatch repair -Nucleotide excision repair -Fanconi repair DNA damage signaling: ATM, ATR, Chk2 DNA damage responsive cell cycle checkpoints: S & G2/M

  9. Regulation of BRCA1 Expression Increased Expression -cancer chemoprevention – indole-3-carbinol, genistein -mammary epithelial cell differentiation -cell cycle -  in late G1, early S-phase Decreased Expression -30-40% sporadic breast cancers: promoter methylation -ethanol -polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons – B(a)P, BPDE -persistent organochlorines (PCBs) -p53 activation -Id4 (bHLH transcriptional regulator)

  10. BRCA1 Regulated Transcriptional Pathways -interacts w/ basal transcription factor (RNA helicase A) -C-terminus: chromatin unfolding activity (COBRA1) -associates w/ Brg1 (SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling) -stimulates Gadd45, p21WAF1, p27Kip1 expression -coactivator for p53 -inhibits c-Myc activity and TERT expression -interacts with STAT1–interferon -mediated transcription -regulates nuclear receptor function

  11. BRCA1 transcriptional regulation

  12. BRCA1-interacting proteins

  13. BRCA1-transcription repression
