Abstract excerpt
Methyl-directed mismatch repair is a coordinated process that ensures replication fidelity and genome integrity by resolving base pair mismatches and insertion/deletion loops. This post-replicative event involves the activities of several proteins, many of which appear to be regulated by MutL. MutL interacts with and modulates the activities of MutS, MutH, UvrD, and perhaps other proteins. The purified protein...
