Abstract excerpt
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Msh2p, a central component in mismatch repair, forms a heterodimer with Msh3p to repair small insertion/deletion mismatches and with Msh6p to repair base pair mismatches and single-nucleotide insertion/deletion mismatches. In haploids, a msh2Delta mutation is synthetically lethal with pol3-01, a mutation in the Poldelta proofreading exonuclease. Six conditional alleles of msh2 were...
