BRCA1 interacting protein C-terminal helicase 1, abbreviated BRIP, is a tumour suppressor gene that interacts with BRCA1 to help repair double-strand DNA breaks. [1] [2] It is a good example of a gene whose mutations cause clinical manifestations that can be dominant or recessive.

It is also known as BACH1 and FANCJ.

Disease associations

  • Fanconi anemia with biallelic mutations (autosomal recessive manifestation).[2]
  • Breast and ovarian cancer with monoallelic mutation (autosomal dominant manifestation).[2]
