|  Post Translational Modifications  |   Phosphorylation of Ser-406 of the pSXXF motif by ATM or ATR constitutes a specific recognition motif for the BRCT domain of BRCA1. Ionizing radiation promotes rapid phosphorylation at Ser-404 and Ser-406 by ATM.this promotes recruitment of BRCA1 to sites of DNA damage.  |  
  |  Function  |   Involved in DNA damage response and double-strand break (DSB) repair. Component of the BRCA1-A complex, acting as a central scaffold protein that assembles the various components of the complex and mediates the recruitment of BRCA1. The BRCA1-A complex specifically recognizes 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitinated histones H2A and H2AX at DNA lesion sites, leading to target the BRCA1-BARD1 heterodimer to sites of DNA damage at DSBs. This complex also possesses deubiquitinase activity that specifically removes 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin on histones H2A and H2AX.  |
