FunFam 1: DNA double-strand break repair protein Mre11

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 7 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Y-form DNA binding GO:0000403
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with segment of DNA shaped like a Y. This shape occurs when DNA contains a region of paired double-stranded DNA on one end and a region of unpaired DNA strands on the opposite end.
1 Q8U1N9 (/IDA)
Endonuclease activity GO:0004519
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of ester linkages within nucleic acids by creating internal breaks.
1 Q8U1N9 (/IDA)
Protein binding GO:0005515
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules).
1 Q8U1N9 (/IPI)
3'-5' exonuclease activity GO:0008408
Catalysis of the hydrolysis of ester linkages within nucleic acids by removing nucleotide residues from the 3' end.
1 Q8U1N9 (/IDA)
Manganese ion binding GO:0030145
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with manganese (Mn) ions.
1 Q8U1N9 (/IDA)
Identical protein binding GO:0042802
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an identical protein or proteins.
1 Q8U1N9 (/IPI)
DNA end binding GO:0045027
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with the ends of DNA that are exposed by the creation of double-strand breaks (DSBs).
1 Q8U1N9 (/IDA)

There are 1 GO terms relating to "biological process"

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Double-strand break repair GO:0006302
The repair of double-strand breaks in DNA via homologous and nonhomologous mechanisms to reform a continuous DNA helix.
1 Q8U1N9 (/IDA)

There are 0 GO terms relating to "cellular component"
