DNA-repairing proteins: View of a structural biologist
- 👤 Speaker: Dr Domi Baretic (MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge)

- 📍 Venue: The Richard King Room, Darwin College
Abstract
What do you do when your DNA is broken? Call for repair. The cell needs a healthy DNA so to faithfully read instruction carried in our genes. Our DNA daily undergoes physical damage as we interact with the environment. The cell has evolved a fascinating system made up of proteins that signal and repair broken DNA . My work focused on the two protein enzymes called ATM and ATR . I was hoping to get more functional insights by studying the molecular architecture of ATM /R using the electron microscope. In my talk I would like to share with you my latest findings.
