The bound complex is important in the normal double-strand break repair function of breast cancer, type 1 (BRCA1). This gene may be a target of germline cancer-inducing mutations. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] Annotation information Note: BACH1 (Gene ID: 571) and BRIP1 (Gene ID: 83990) share the BACH1 symbol/alias in common. BACH1 is a widely used alternative name for BRCA1 interacting protein C-terminal helicase 1 (BRIP1), which can be confused with the official symbol for BTB domain and CNC homolog 1 (BACH1).
