"These observations support the notion that the crystal structure of the BRCC36 and KIAA0157 heterodimer is reflective of both BRCC36-KIAA0157 and the BRCC36-Abraxas interactions in cells, and that perturbation of heterodimerization has far reaching consequences on the assembly of other subunits."
reach
"However, and in contrast to insect Abro1 and BRCC36 complexes described previously, the human Abraxas and BRCC36 subcomplex behaved as a soluble aggregate that could not be further purified, but was, nonetheless, able to form a stable monodispersed and stoichiometric assembly when purified in combination with BRCC45 and MERIT40."

"Regardless, MALLS analysis of the reconstituted four-component BRCA1-A complex reported an apparent molecular mass of 280kDa (XREF_FIG B), suggestive of a dimer of Abraxas/BRCC36/BRCC45/MERIT40 heterotetramers and consonant with the " super-dimer " originally described for insect Abro1 and BRCC36 heterodimers."

"To validate the BRCC36 and KIAA0157 heterodimer as being relevant in cells, we mutated direct contact residues and assessed interaction function of human BRCC36 and KIAA0157 by co-immunoprecipitation (see structure based sequence alignments in XREF_SUPPLEMENTARY and XREF_SUPPLEMENTARY for a list of equivalent residues mutated)."

"We pursued crystallization of BRCC36-KIAA0157 subcomplexes from different species (H. sapiens, G. gallus, X. tropicalis, D. rerio, C. floridanus and A. thaliana) to determine the structural basis for (1) how KIAA0157 supports the catalytic function of BRCC36, and (2) how super dimerization of the minimally active BRCC36 and KIAA0157 heterodimer is mediated."
