Functional Families

Overview of the Structural Clusters (SC) and Functional Families within this CATH Superfamily. Clusters with a representative structure are represented by a filled circle.

Superfamily: Mre11, capping domain

The Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 (MRN) complex tethers, processes and signals DNA double strand breaks, promoting genomic stability. Mre11 dimerizes via phosphodiesterase domains flanked by a alpha/beta capping domain, process which creates a U-shaped particle with a broad DNA/Rad50 binding cleft. Structural domains comprising this superfamily share the structure of Mre11's capping domain )PMID:22705791.
