Product Specific Information

Antibody detects endogenous levels of total BARD1.

Target Information

This gene encodes a protein which interacts with the N-terminal region of BRCA1. In addition to its ability to bind BRCA1 in vivo and in vitro, it shares homology with the two most conserved regions of BRCA1: the N-terminal RING motif and the C-terminal BRCT domain.
The RING motif is a cysteine-rich sequence found in a variety of proteins that regulate cell growth, including tumor suppressor genes and protooncogenes.
This protein also contains three tandem ankyrin repeats. The BARD1/BRCA1 interaction is disrupted by tumorigenic amino acid substitutions in BRCA1, implying that the formation of a stable complex between these proteins may be essential for BRCA1 tumor suppression.
This protein may be the target of oncogenic mutations in breast or ovarian cancer.
