Abstract excerpt
The Mre11/Rad50 complex is a critical component of the cellular response to DNA double-strand breaks, in organisms ranging from archaebacteria to humans. In mammalian cells, Mre11/Rad50 (M/R) associates with a third component, Nbs1, that regulates its activities and is targeted by signaling pathways that initiate DNA damage-induced checkpoint responses. Mutations in the genes that encode Nbs1 and Mre11 are...
