BABAM2 BRISC and BRCA1 A complex member 2 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 9577)
Symbol: BABAM2
Full name: BRISC and BRCA1 A complex member 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: BRCC4; BRCC45; BRE
Summary: This gene encodes an anti-apoptotic, death receptor-associated protein that interacts with tumor necrosis factor-receptor-1. The encoded protein acts as an adapter in several protein complexes, including the BRCA1-A complex and the BRISC complex. The BRCA1-A complex possesses ubiquitinase activity and targets sites of double strand DNA breaks, while the BRISC complex exhibits deubiquitinase activity and is involved in mitotic spindle assembly. This gene is upregulated in several types of cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016]
