Abstract excerpt
The large protein kinases, ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) and ATM-Rad3-related (ATR), coordinate the cellular response to DNA damage. In budding yeast, ATR homologue Mec1 plays a central role in DNA damage signaling. Mec1 interacts physically with Ddc2 and functions in the form of the Mec1-Ddc2 complex. To identify proteins interacting with the Mec1-Ddc2 complex, we performed a modified two-hybrid screen and...
