Background
ubiquitin interaction motif containing 1(UIMC1) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a nuclear protein that interacts with Brca1 (breast cancer 1) in a complex to recognize and repair DNA lesions. This protein binds ubiquitinated lysine 63 of histone H2A and H2AX. This protein may also function as a repressor of transcription. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function
domain:The Abraxas-interacting region (AIR) mediates the interaction with FAM175A/Abraxas.,domain:The UIM-linker region between the 2 UIM repeats determines the selectivity for 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin. The length of the linker is important. The linker reduces the flexibility between the UIM repeats and promotes high-affinity and linkage-selective interactions.,function:Ubiquitin-binding protein that specifically recognizes and binds 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin. Plays a central role in the BRCA1-A complex by specifically binding 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitinated histones H2A and H2AX at DNA lesions sites, leading to target the BRCA1-BARD1 heterodimer to sites of DNA damage at double-strand breaks (DSBs). The BRCA1-A complex also possesses deubiquitinase activity that specifically removes 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin on histones H2A and H2AX. Also weakly binds monoubiquitin but with much less aff
