Abstract excerpt
The mismatch repair (MMR) system is critical not only for the repair of DNA replication errors, but also for the regulation of mitotic and meiotic recombination processes. In a manner analogous to its ability to remove replication errors, the MMR system can remove mismatches in heteroduplex recombination intermediates to generate gene conversion events. Alternatively, such mismatches can trigger an MMR-dependent...
