Abstract excerpt
The Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 (MRN) heterotrimer plays various and complex roles in DNA damage repair and checkpoint signaling. Its role in activating Ataxia-Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM), the central checkpoint kinase in the metazoan double-strand break response, has been well studied. However, its function in the checkpoint independent of ATM activation, as well as functions that are completely checkpoint independent,...
