Ohio State University Apr 28 2026 Scientists have captured the most detailed structural images to date of a specific type of protein's DNA repair process, a finding that could reveal ways to inhibit the effects of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations that heighten the risk for breast, ovarian and other cancers. Previous research has shown that a protein in humans called RAD52 performs DNA repair in cancer cells lacking the tumor-suppression function of normal BRCA genes, enabling the cells to survive and
