Review Description

The Mre11 nuclease has been the subject of intensive investigation for the past 20 years because of the central role that Mre11/Rad50 complexes play in genome maintenance. The last two decades of work on this complex has led to a much deeper understanding of the structure, biochemical activities, and regulation of Mre11/Rad50 complexes from archaea, bacteria, and eukaryotic cells. This review will discuss some of the important findings over recent years that have illuminated roles for the Mre11 nuclease in these different contexts as well as the insights from structural biology that have helped us to understand its mechanisms of action.
