Protein complex
A multiprotein complex is a group of two or more associated polypeptide chains. If the different polypeptide chains contain different protein domain, the resulting multiprotein complex can have multiple catalytic functions...

Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1
The MRN complex is heterotrimeric protein complex consisting of Mre11, Rad50 and Nbs1. It is involved in DNA repair in mammals. Nbs1 is referred to as Nibrin. This complex recognizes DNA damage and rapidly relocates to DSB sites and forms nuclear foci. Its activity includes end-processing of...
