DNA repair and cancer: Interaction between the Rad50 protein complex and checkpoint Rad proteins

Objective

To improve our understanding of the link between DNA repair, chekpoint signalling and the initiation of cancer, I propose to study the interaction between the Rad50 protein complex and the checkpoint Rad proteins using S. pombe as a model organism.
