https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ps-1145.html The MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 (MRN) protein complex plays a vital role in DNA double strand break sensing, signaling, and repair. Mutation in any component of this complex may lead to disease as disrupting DNA double strand break repair has the potential to cause translocations and loss of genomic information. Here, we have investigated an MRE11 mutation, F237C, identified in a breast cancer tumor. We found that the analogous mutant of Pyrococcus furiosus Mre11 diminishes both the exonuclease and endonuclease activities of Mre11 in vitro. Solution state NMR experiments show that this mutant causes structural changes in the DNA-bound Mre11 for both exo- and endonuclease substrates and causes the protein to become generally more rigid. Moreover, by comparing the NMR data for this cancer-associated mutant with two previously described Mre11 separation-of-nuclease function mutants, a potential allosteric network was detected within Mre11 that connects the active site to regions responsible for recognizing the DNA ends and for dimerization. Together, our data further highlight the dynamics required for Mre11 nuclease function and illuminate the presence of allostery within the enzyme.Discordant U-Pb data of zircon are commonly attributed to Pb loss from domains with variable degree of radiation damage that resulted from α-decay of U and Th, which often complicates the correct age interpretation of the sample. Here we present U-Pb zircon data from 23 samples of ca. 1.7-1.9 Ga granitoid rocks in and around the Siljan impact structure in central Sweden. Our results show that zircon from rocks within the structure that form an uplifted central plateau lost significantly less radiogenic Pb compared to zircon grains in rocks outside the plateau. We hypothesize that zircon in rocks within the central plateau remained crystalline through continuous annealing of crystal structure damages induced from decay of U and Th until uplifted to the
