BRCA1 C Terminus (BRCT) domain is a family of evolutionarily related proteins. It is named after the C-terminal domain of BRCA1, a DNA-repair protein that serves as a marker of breast cancer susceptibility.

The BRCT domain is found predominantly in proteins involved in cell cycle checkpoint functions responsive to DNA damage,[2] for example as found in the breast cancer DNA-repair protein BRCA1. The domain is an approximately 100 amino acid tandem repeat, which appears to act as a phospho-protein binding domain.[3]

Examples

Human proteins containing this domain include:

gollark: There's that famous "iterated logistic map" thing.

gollark: I'm pretty sure I can easily construct models without that sort of thing.

gollark: While anything with momentum technically has a frequency, it's too ridiculously tiny to be relevant in most situations.

gollark: As planned.

gollark: Telling people that they should support some sort of equality thing because, in a thought experiment, they would be randomly assigned whatever attributes, does not seem like it would work.
