Elusive protein complex could hold the key to treating chromosomal disorders

The cells in our body are constantly fighting off the threat of cancer by repairing damaged DNA. In a new study, scientists investigate the structure of an elusive protein complex that plays a key role in the activation of the 'Fanconi anemia pathway' involved in DNA repair, and report on the factors governing its stability. Their insights can potentially help find novel treatments disorders involving chromosomal instability, including cancer.
