The present invention concerns methods and compositions involving inhibitors and of RAD51, a protein involved in homologous recombination. In some embodiments, there are methods for sensitizing cells to the effects of DNA damaging agents, which can have particular applications for cancer patients. In some embodiments of the invention, the RAD51 inhibitor is a small molecule that directly affects RAD51 activity, such as its ability to promote filament formation.
本发明涉及 RAD51(一种参与同源重组的蛋白质)的抑制剂和组合物。在某些实施方案中,有使细胞对 DNA 损伤剂的作用敏感的方法,这对癌症患者有特殊的应用价值。在本发明的某些实施方案中,RAD51 抑制剂是一种直接影响 RAD51 活性的小分子,如其促进细丝形成的能力。
