Mechanistically, we find that multiple genes in the homologous recombination and Fanconi anemia repair pathways, including BRCA1, FANCD2, and RAD51, are dependent on Wnt/β‐catenin signaling in Wnt‐high cancers, and treatment with a PORCN inhibitor creates a BRCA‐like state. This evidence concerns the gene BRCA1 and cancer.
