Abstract excerpt
Mre11 is one of important proteins that are involved in DNA repair and recombination by processing DNA ends to produce 3'-single stranded DNA, thus providing a platform for other DNA repair and recombination proteins. In this work, we characterized the Mre11 protein from the hyperthermophilic euryarchaeon Thermococcus barophilus Ch5 (Tba-Mre11) biochemically and dissected the roles of its four conserved residues,...
