The BRCA-1 protein, recognized for its diagnostic relevance in a wide spectrum of malignancies, has been the focus of extensive investigation. In this study, an electrochemical immunosensor specifically designed for BRCA-1 detection was fabricated. The sensing platform utilizes disposable pencil graphite electrodes modified with a nanocomposite composed of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), and chitosan (CS). This multifunctional nanostructure significantly promotes electron transfer efficiency and supports the effective immobilization of antibodies. The constructed immunosensor exhibited excellent analytical performance, with a linear detection range between 0.05 and 20 ng/mL for BRCA-1 and a notably low limit of detection at 0.04 ng/mL. The device maintained a relative standard deviation of 3.59% (n = 3), indicating strong reproducibility. In addition, a high recovery rate of 98 ± 3% was achieved in spiked serum samples, even in the presence of common electroactive interferents such as dopamine and ascorbic acid. These findings highlight the sensor’s promising applicability for the clinical detection of BRCA-1 and potentially other cancer-related biomarkers.
