Excerpt

The breast and ovarian predisposition protein BRCA1 is a required component of the mammalian response to double-stranded DNA damage. Its conserved BRCT domains are required for BRCA1 accumulation to sites of repair, while the conserved N-terminal RING domain is able to catalyse the conjugation of ubiquitin and act as an E3 ubiquitin ligase. Disruption of either of these domains by missense mutation is associated with disease development. …

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
