Henderson BARD1 heterodimerizes with BRCA1, forming an E3 ubiquitin ligase that functions at nuclear foci to repair DNA damage and the centrosome to regulate mitosis. We compared BARD1 recruitment at these structures using fluorescence recovery after photobleaching assays to measure YFP-BARD1 dynamics in live cells. In nuclei at ionizing radiation-induced foci, 20% of the BARD1 pool was immobile and 80% of slow mobility exhibiting a recovery time > 500 s.
