Identifying the protein interactions of Mre11-Rad50 in Haloferax volcanii during double-strand break repair

The Mre11 and Rad50 proteins are found in all domains of life and form a complex that locates and binds to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). The complex tethers DNA ends and coordinates the repair of DSBs. In Haloferax volcanii, mre11rad50 mutants are more resistant to DNA damage than the wild-type....
