NCIt definition : Human ABRAXAS1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 4q21.23 and is approximately
64 kb in length. This allele, which encodes BRCA1-A complex subunit Abraxas 1 protein,
plays a role in the mediation of DNA repair and the progression of the cell cycle.;
NCIt note : Mutation of the FAM175A gene that abrogates the nuclear localization and DNA damage
response activities of the gene product is associated with hereditary breast cancer.
