The cancer-associated D2723H mutation causes mislocalization of BRCA2 to the cytoplasm. New work shows that this mutation disrupts the interaction of BRCA2 with DSS1, unmasking a BRCA2 nuclear export signal within the DSS1 binding domain. This impairs nuclear retention of BRCA2 and, consequently, RAD51, suggesting that the intracellular localizatio...
