A dynamic allosteric pathway underlies Rad50 ABC ATPase function in DNA repair

Abstract The Mre11-Rad50 protein complex is an initial responder to sites of DNA double strand breaks. Many studies have shown that ATP binding to Rad50 causes global changes to the Mre11-Rad50 structure, which are important for DNA repair functions. Here we used methyl-based NMR spectroscopy on a s...
