Biallelic inactivation of cancer susceptibility gene BRCA1 leads to breast and ovarian carcinogenesis. Paradoxically, BRCA1 deficiency in mice results in early embryonic lethality, and similarly, lack of BRCA1 in human cells is thought to result in cellular lethality in view of BRCA1's essential function. To survive homozygous BRCA1 inactivation du...
