MDC1 (Mediator of DNA damage checkpoint 1) is a critical scaffold protein involved in the DNA damage response (DDR), particularly in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). When DSBs occur, the MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 (MRN) complex senses the damage and recruits the ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase, which phosphorylates histone H2AX (γ-H2AX). MDC1 binds to γ-H2AX via its C-terminal tandem BRCA1 C-terminal (BRCT) domain, stabilizing the interaction between repair factors and damaged chromatin. It also contains a Forkhead-associated (FHA) domain that interacts with ATM-phosphorylated targets, amplifying DDR signaling. MDC1 facilitates the recruitment of downstream effectors, including BRCA1. 53BP1. and RNF8/RNF168 ubiquitin ligases, to orchestrate cell cycle checkpoints, chromatin remodeling, and repair via homologous recombination (HR) or non-homologous end joining (NHEJ).
Recombinant MDC1 protein is engineered using expression systems like *E. coli* or mammalian cells to produce purified, functional MDC1 for biochemical and structural studies. Its recombinant form often includes affinity tags (e.g., GST, His-tag) for efficient purification. Researchers use it to dissect MDC1’s interactions with DDR components, map binding interfaces, or screen for modulators of its activity. Defects in MDC1 are linked to genomic instability and cancer, making it a potential target for therapies aimed at sensitizing cancer cells to DNA-damaging agents. Recombinant MDC1 thus serves as a vital tool for unraveling DDR mechanisms and developing strategies to exploit DNA repair pathways in disease treatment.
