Mutations are rare events, occurring spontaneously at a frequency of 1 per 109-1010 base
pairs per cell division. 1, 2 Nucleotide misincorporation during DNA synthesis yields …

DNA mismatch repair (MMR) proteins are ubiquitous players in a diverse array of important
cellular functions. In its role in post-replication repair, MMR safeguards the genome …

DNA mismatch repair (MMR) corrects mismatched base pairs mainly caused by DNA
replication errors. The fundamental mechanisms and proteins involved in the early reactions …

The machinery of DNA mismatch repair enzymes is highly conserved in evolution. The
process is initiated by recognition of a DNA mismatch, and validated by ATP and the …

DNA mismatch repair influences the outcome of recombination events between diverging
DNA sequences. Here we discuss how mismatch repair proteins are active in different …

In this study, we describe a method of simultaneous conditional gene silencing of up to four
genes in Escherichia coli by using antisense RNAs. We used antisense RNAs with paired …

We examined the effects of substrate divergence and DNA mismatch repair (MMR) on
recombination in Arabidopsis thaliana. Relative to the frequency observed in plants with a …

In the canonical DNA mismatch repair (MMR) mechanism in bacteria, if a nucleotide is
incorrectly mis-paired with the template strand during replication, the resulting repair of this …

DNA mismatch repair (MMR) corrects replication errors in newly synthesized DNA. It also
has an antirecombination action on heteroduplexes that contain similar but not identical …

MSH2 is a central component of the mismatch repair pathway that targets mismatches
arising during DNA replication, homologous recombination (HR) and in response to …
