Stable interaction between the products of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 tumor suppressor genes in mitotic and meiotic cells

TL;DR: BRCA1 and BRCA2 participate, together, in a pathway(s) associated with the activation of double-strand break repair and/or homologous recombination and Dysfunction of this pathway may be a general phenomenon in the majority of cases of hereditary breast and/ or ovarian cancer.
