Interaction of MutS and Vsr: some dominant-negative mutS mutations that disable methyladenine-directed mismatch repair are active in very-short-patch repair.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 2001

Lieb M, Rehmat S, Bhagwat A S

Abstract excerpt

In Escherichia coli and related bacteria, the very-short-patch (VSP) repair pathway uses an endonuclease, Vsr, to correct T-G mismatches that result from the deamination of 5-methylcytosines in DNA to C-G. The products of mutS and mutL, which are required for adenine methylation-directed mismatch repair (MMR), enhance VSP repair. Multicopy plasmids carrying mutS alleles that are dominant negative for MMR were...
