“…How DNA damage signals for increased interaction between DPP9 and BRCA2 remains to be shown. However, we note that the N‐terminus of BRCA2 is intrinsically disordered (Le et al , 2020 ; Sidhu et al , 2020 ; Paul et al , 2021 ) and is involved in the formation of BRCA2 dimers and multimers through self‐interactions (Shahid et al , 2014 ; Reuter et al , 2015 ; Sánchez et al , 2017 ; Le et al , 2020 ; Sidhu et al , 2020 ). Thus, it is tempting to speculate that BRCA2 is shielded from DPP9 in the multimeric form, and becomes available as a DPP9 substrate by a transition of BRCA2 multimers to monomers, a process that is favored by ssDNA, RAD51, increased temperature, and the BRCA2 chaperone DSS1 (Le et al , 2020 ; Sidhu et al , 2020 ).…”
