General description

P53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) plays a critical role in tumor suppression and is a putative substrate of ATM kinase. Upon DNA damage, it is phosphorylated and relocalizes to the presumptive sites of damage, specifically, double-strand breaks. This also suggests a role in DNA repair, and maintaining genomic stability. It is sequence specific transcription factor that plays a central role in the the response of mammalian cells to genotoxic stress. Also, 53BP1 localizes to kinetochores in mitotic cells, suggesting a potential function in mitotic checkpoint signaling.
