Crystal structure of the catalytic core of Rad2: insights into the mechanism of substrate binding

Rad2/XPG belongs to the flap nuclease family and is responsible for a key step of the eukaryotic nucleotide excision DNA repair (NER) pathway. To elucidate the mechanism of DNA binding by Rad2/XPG, we solved crystal structures of the catalytic core of Rad2 in complex with a substrate. Rad2 utilizes...
