| Short Name | Mre11_archaea-type |
| description | This entry includes DNA double-strand break repair protein Mre11 mainly from archaea. Similar to the eukaryotic Mre11-Rad50 complex, the archaeal Mre11-Rad50 complex is involved in the early steps of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. The Haloferax volcanii Mre11-Rad50 complex may restrain the repair of DSBs by HR (homologous recombination), allowing another pathway to act as the primary mode of repair []. |
