Abstract excerpt
The Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) mutant cell line xrs-6C is highly sensitive to radiation and is deficient in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. The repair defect of xrs-6C is complemented by the human DSB repair gene designated as XRCC5. This gene was recently identified as Ku80, which encodes the human autoantigen protein Ku p80. Ku80 protein forms heterodimer with the Ku70 subunit to form a complex that...
